There's also the Lisp-Stat ecosystem, if you don't already know about it.
Data-frame, array-operations and LLA (Lisp Linear Algebra) cover much of
numpy's functionality; at least enough to get significant work done.

FYI - there appears to be a library called numcl that was written to cover
numpy's functionality.

I've yet to try it, but thought I'd pass along the link.

There’s cl-ana, which may be a useful substitute in some cases… or april,
possibly.

If you specifically want numpy, it may be possible to have Common Lisp talking
to python.

Hi Michael
I am all for it. But, as I said, I am an academic (and a cat).
Should we (as in "a bunch of common lispers", most of whom with day jobs) want
to do something like that, how would you want to proceed? Note that I have
been part of many past failures.
All the best
Marco

IMHO, it'd be easier and effective to band up together and FIRST write a proper
API specification and THEN implement it in CL.
I agree. Here’s the API specification for NumPy:

Looks rather intimidating. Less intimidating though, than doing the FFI dance,
though.
