Key differences between Matlab and Janet

CharacteristicMatlabJanet
SyntaxUses a proprietary, matrix-oriented language with syntax similar to traditional mathematical notation.Uses a lightweight, Lisp-like syntax with s-expressions and minimal punctuation.
ParadigmPrimarily procedural and imperative, with support for object-oriented and some functional programming.Multi-paradigm, with strong support for functional, imperative, and metaprogramming styles.
TypingDynamically typed, with most variables being arrays or matrices by default.Dynamically typed, with flexible data structures and runtime type checking.
PerformanceOptimized for numerical and matrix computations; often faster for large-scale mathematical operations due to built-in libraries.Lightweight and fast for scripting and embedding, but not specifically optimized for heavy numerical computations.
Libraries and frameworksExtensive proprietary libraries for mathematics, engineering, signal processing, and more.Smaller ecosystem with community-contributed libraries, focused on general-purpose scripting and embedding.
Community and supportLarge, active user base with official support, documentation, and forums.Smaller, niche community with open-source support and active development on GitHub.
Learning curveModerate; designed for engineers and scientists, with extensive documentation and educational resources.Steeper for those unfamiliar with Lisp-like languages; minimalistic core but requires learning s-expression syntax.
