Your comment has taken me from having mixed feelings about Julia to making me convinced I want to try Julia for something numerically intensive that I would be inclined to turn to C for.

Even better, Julia code is super high-level and readable. And you can just drop down to C using the builtin "ccall" facility. Julia's type system is designed for excellent interop with the C ABI.
