Julia has to some degree already cemented itself in the scientific community, and will most likely continue to expand in the coming years. It aims at taking the middle ground between Python on one side, and Fortran and C++ on the other. In this notebook we offer a quick introduction for those who wish to venture from Python to Julia.
