Thanks!

Regarding "Scientific" - we just added the Data Science Workload to Visual Studio 2017. Check it out here:

Basically Python + Anaconda, R + Microsoft enhanced R, F# with .Net as a single install. Python & R work with any interpreter, including IronPython & Pypy.

Thanks a lot! This is exactly what I need, this will ease my arguments when I need to port/bring some "Matlab" code/models into a GUI tremendously.

Now, /me is dreaming of a cross-platform WPF with Python as language and integrated in the IDE like C#/VB.net. I am using PyQT but this is not the best on Windows.

On a side note, just comparing Visual Studio today and Visual Studio of my first real work days in VC++/MFC (something like 20 years ago), I must say that it really makes me ship good software faster and better. Thank you!
