The only languages I know that truly support anything like what you 
want are programmes like Mathematica and arguably MS Excel

There is a pseudo mathematica somewhere in Python but otherwise 
its roll your own time ... I think... Which usually means its time for 
somebody to find a ready wrapped solution :-)
