I like this idea in theory at least. I think Dylan worked this way too.

It's kind of shame Dylan died out. It seems like it was ahead of its time in many ways.

Dylan does work in a similar way. One issue is that we don't go far enough yet, particularly with functions, so while you can specify a vector of integers, you can't (yet) specify a function that takes an integer parameter, just a function. We'd like to do something about that this year.

Recently, there is some activity to revive Dylan.

In fact, we're working towards a new release in the coming month or so. :)
