The coverage of multiple dispatch goes on a little long, but that's OK if you haven't seen it before.

Has anyone experimented with Julia? Any thoughts?

I don't need much beyond my DM42 at this point, so I haven't taken the time to experiment with it. But it does look fun. Apparently you can get it running on Android, too:

So it is at least in some sense portable...

with termux on android one can do a lot, unfortunately is only for android 5.0 and on (thus old devices cannot be used, for those there is a chroot).

Termux on android : python, awk, julia (of course C, perl) and many others.
