While getting my degree in Physics, I had to take classes in both MatLab and Python for scientific computing. I preferred python, where we used the SciPy and NumPy packages. In fact, I used those packages again (along with matplotlib) in an undergraduate research project simulating bacteria films. There’s a catch: I was also pursuing a degree in Computer Science, and Python just wasn’t fast enough for that side of me, so, during my free time in graduate school, I rewrote my biofilm simulation in my new favorite language, Rust.
