Nice work!

Regarding the pretty Julia version of Lennard-Jones MD.

You can shape of another second (on my machine) by not passing in the lj 
method as a parameter, but directly calling it. 

I tried to write an optimize version of your lj_pretty function by 
analysing it with @profile and rewriting the slow parts. You can see my 
results here: https://gist.github.com/vchuravy/f42f458717a7a49395a5 
I went step for step through it and applied one optimization at a time. You 
can also see the time computation time spend at each line as a comment. 
Mostly I just removed temporary array allocation and then applied your math 
optimization.

One question though. In lj_cstyle(x) you calculate dJ = -12.*(t*t - t) * s 
, shouldn't it be dJ = -12.*(t*t - t) / s? 

Kind regards,
Valentin
