Also I recently discovered Julia's Pluto[1][1a] and I really like their focused notebook environment saved in plain text instead of Jupyter's cumbersome and human unfriendly JSON. A breath of fresh air, following the steps in human/diff friendly formats for interactive notebooks of Pharo's Grafoscopio, Elixir's LiveBook or Clojure's Clerk.

I don't know about Nim's scientific ecosystem (Julia seems better in that regard). But one of the advantage of novice's mind is that we can start without the heaviness and even ignore the one related with popularity of fashion (like the one in Rust these days).

Looks like Nim can use a good range of scientific computing libraries, and there are some GUI libraries.  So at this point the two compiled languages that would be if serious interest to me would be Nim and Julia.

        So yes, I would use nim if I could.

        I've just glanced at nim code.  "I" instead of "if"??


    Never mind. nim's intro page clearly shows python-like keywords.

    I thought I was reading nim code at https://rosettacode.org/wiki,
    but I must have been reading something else :-)
