Could Numpy be considered the APL renaissance? Not in syntax, but conceptually?

> it would be great to use something like guix to define all the libsodium+zeromq+czmq+zyre dependancies and be able to spit out an 'ultimate container image' You define a package …

Pik can synthesize noise. https://github.com/google/pik

That is what I expected as well, but it turns out not to be the case. See also https://www.ece.cmu.edu/~ece548/hw/lab3/faq-do~1.htm and https://encode.ru/threads/2922-Knusperli-%E2…
