I understand the Julia part, but does F# have any particularly good facilities or libraries for this kind of (fast) array manipulation? It's been getting a good amount of love on HN lately, but I don't know if any specific strengths of it (beyond the general sense of "functional language with access to .NET ecosystem").
I was more curious why they chose F# among the many many languages out there, and this kind of list unfortunately is not very useful for that - similar lists exist in pretty much every awesome-$language page out there. They don't give us any idea of how robust or featureful the ecosystem and support is, which are the things that would differentiate "this too supports it, kinda" (which is every major language out there) and "this is really well-supported and ergonomic".
