There's always IronPython (Python implemented for the .NET runtime). I've
never used it, but it is a .NET technology and I think it even has support
in Visual studio. It's probably interoperable with the .NET framework
libraries, as Jython is with the Java libraries.

It's gotta be a better tool than MatLab, unless you need MatLab-like
functions for something. (I don't know how well one can pull external
modules into IronPython, e.g. NumPy.)
