Julia does have binary executable generation options, but most people only find this out after a few weeks. And yes, one can also call it as a library (.so or .a) from within C/C++ .

Julia is the first unique language I've been excited about in decades, as it can often outperform C, C++, and numpy in several use-cases. The only downside is until the 170MB+ lib is cached by the kernel, it gets panned by BS perf stats due to initial i/o constrained load times on some platforms.

Good luck, and have a great day =)
