# Why We Created Julia
# We are greedy: we want more.)
# We want a language that's open source, with a liberal license.
# We want the speed of C with the dynamism of Ruby.
# We want a language that's homoiconic with true macros like Lisp,
# but with obvious, familiar mathematical notation like Matlab.
# We want something as usable for general programming as Python,
# as easy for statistics as R,
# as natural for string processing as Perl,
# as powerful for linear algebra as Matlab,
# as good at gluing programs together as the shell.
# Something that is dirt simple to learn,
# yet keeps the most serious hackers happy.
# We want it interactive and we want it compiled.)
# (Did we mention it should be as fast as C?))
