摘要：一群科学家对现有计算工具感到不满：他们想要一套开源系统，有C的快速，Ruby的动态，Python的通用，R般在统计分析上得心应手，Perl的处理字符串处理，Matlab的线性代数运算能力……易学又不让真正的黑客感到无聊。
Abstract: a group of scientists are dissatisfied with existing computational tools: they wish to have an original/pioneering system, with the speed of C, the dynamism of Ruby, the useability/widespread use of Python, the ease of statistical analysis à la R, the ability to process strings like Perl, the ability to do linear algebra operations like Matlab... to be easy to learn, yet not be boring to real hackers. http://www.csdn.net/article/2014-03-12/2818732
