Yup, it was already everywhere before ‘data science’ was a thing. Turns out, people in actual fundamental science want to slap calculations together fast instead of fussing with memory and whatnot.

I have a friend who writes C or C++ (can't remember which) for clusters processing data from particle accelerators, but he will still reach for Python when he wants anything simpler than that—and, I guess, less interactive than Matlab.
