STEM applications of Groovy?

Hello,

I joined the list to learn if STEM applications exist for Groovy? I read
through several months of archives but did not see much involving issues I
am interested in such as computation, simulations, approximations, etc. I
used Groovy briefly in an image processing application but it was only
calling operations which performed the manipulations I am interested in
learning if Groovy can perform.

Thank you,

Rick

Hi Rick,

never mind, others already took your question to mean what I suggested, 
and I think you already got some good answers :-)

Cheers,
mg

PS: I might just add that Python is imho the hot language by means of 
hype, not by merit of the language itself ;-)

Hi Rick,

should
"but it was only calling operations which performed the manipulations I 
am interested in learning if Groovy can perform."
read
"but it was only calling operations which performed the manipulations. I 
am interested in learning if Groovy can perform." ?

Or more generally: Could you elaborate what exactly your question is 
(and maybe why you are asking it) ?-)

Cheers,
mg
