And since we're talking about foundations and their money here, it's worth pointing out that the situation regarding numerical computing is different -- indeed, the Sloane Foundation recently put very substantial monetary support behind development of the scientific Python stack (organized around IPython), which is really awesome.And not just Sloan. Travis Oliphant et. al. got the $3 million DARPA grant for moving forward the scientific python stack: http://www.continuum.io/press/continuum-receives-darpa-xdata-funding Jason
-1) People are really addict to matlab,2) There are matlab alternatives with a matlab like syntax; we know Octave, but consider also Scilab and look at this:
