[SciPy-user] Pros and Cons of Python verses other array environments

Hi all, I've started a possibly controversial but hopefully informative page that tries to list some of the advantages of using Python+NumPy+Scipy+Matplotlib+IPython (I'm calling that combination PyLab) versus other array environments. The purpose is not to go into detail about semantic differences, but document higher-level differences that might help somebody decide whether or not they could use NumPy instead of some other environment. I've started with a comparison to MATLAB, based on an email response I sent to a friend earlier today. Additions and corrections welcome. -Travis O.
