Re Fortran - it should be a really sensible choice for writing floating point themed python extensions. It has a usable standardised interface to C (as of... F2003? I think) so generating a stub that glues a fortran module onto python's C API would be straightforward. In ye olden days I wrote the numeric kernels and fortran and distributed them across machines in c++, wouldn't be averse to doing the same thing today. Main argument against that is probably that it's possible to get the same sort of codegen out of C++ and fortran native programmers are somewhat scarce, though I'd bet on it being easier to teach to domain people than julia or c++. |
