Well, if we're going to start tossing in other languages:

elastiC: www.elasticworld.org

nice and small, fast, with a core that doesn't have a lot of baggage,
good OO system.

Tcl: www.tcltk.org

I like Tcl a lot, but it might not be the best thing for something
more mathematically oriented.  It has a very well documented C API
though, and if you are just looking for a simple control language,
might be ok.
