Key differences between Matlab and Raku

CharacteristicMatlabRaku
SyntaxProprietary, matrix-oriented, concise for mathematical operations, uses end statements for blocks.Flexible, expressive, Perl-inspired, supports multiple paradigms, uses sigils and advanced regex.
ParadigmPrimarily procedural and array-based, with some object-oriented features.Multi-paradigm: procedural, object-oriented, functional, concurrent, and more.
TypingDynamically typed, weak typing, variables can change type at runtime.Dynamically typed by default, but supports gradual and strong typing with optional type constraints.
PerformanceOptimized for numerical and matrix computations, often faster for math-heavy tasks, but slower for general-purpose code.Generally slower than Matlab for numerical tasks, but performance can vary; still maturing in optimization.
Libraries and frameworksExtensive built-in libraries for math, engineering, signal processing, and toolboxes for specialized domains.Growing ecosystem, general-purpose modules available via ecosystem (zef), but fewer scientific libraries.
Community and supportLarge academic and industry user base, strong official support, active forums, and documentation.Smaller, passionate community, active development, good documentation, but less mainstream support.
Learning curveGentle for beginners in engineering/science, especially for those familiar with math notation.Steeper due to flexible syntax and advanced features, but approachable for those with Perl or programming experience.
