Yet again, C, Ada, and C++ are practical, great, and flexible
languages, but there does not seem to be a github of so many
little helpers like Matlab/Julia/Java have... PAL is old, Boost
is incomplete, etc. Really, these languages are incomparable,
I think, since they are for rather different use cases.

There are programs that won't have their best expression be
a 1, 2, 3, ...-dim matrix computation.
