Hi, raku doesn't have matrix operations built into the language, so you're probably refering to modules out of the ecosystem? Math::Matrix seems to have everything implemented in pure raku, which you should not expect to outperform pure python without some optimization work.

Performance of matrix arithmetic in Raku

2021-02-08 Thread Parrot Raiser
There's a post online comparing Python's performance of matrix arithmetic to C, indicating that Python's performance was 100x (yes, 2 orders of magnitude) slower than C's. If I understand it correctly, matrix modules in Raku call GNU code written in C to perform the actual work. Does that make
