I kind of like the idea behind interfaces in C for Python . . . I just don't like Python. So John, if you read my posts above you'd know that I know that Python is a requirement for building Linux systems. Python Perl, and C are all required. I said "Ruby" above, but meant Perl. In my mind they're both equivalent( garbage, but useful I guess ), hence my mistake Anyway . . . There are machine learning libraries for C . . . No idea if a specific one out there would fit the bill for the OP though. Not my job to look into all that.
