[Numpy-discussion] Comparison between Numpy/Numarray and Ox

[sdfrost at UCSD.Edu]

Dear Numpy list,

Has anyone looked at the comparitive speed of Numpy/Numarray vs. Ox?  For 
those that don't know, Ox is an implicitly typed, object oriented matrix 
programming language that is one of the fastest around, and also allows 
linking to C libraries (http://www.nuff.ox.ac.uk/Users/Doornik/index.html).  I 
use Python a lot, but I was wondering what the computational cost would be to 
switch my matrix-y stuff to Numpy.  Ox isn't open source...

Best wishes
Simon
