>I still don’t understand why we lack a language that will take uncomplicated computation heavy code and turn it into SIMD / multi thread / multiprocessing / GPU code with minimal additional syntax. It's already (partly) existed called D language, by default it's garbage collected (GC), can also be program without it or hybrid. It's a modern, backward compatible with C and it's included in GCC. The linear algebra system in D or Mir GLAS is standalone BLAS implementation written directly in D [1]. It's already proven faster than the other widely existing conventional BLAS like OpenBLAS back in…
