>My bignum library for Nim (not well tested yet): https://github.com/def-/bigints >Complex numbers: http://nim-lang.org/complex.html Ah, good! Glad to be wrong about that! It would be nice if Nim's reader could handle these numeric types transparently. >How is the macro system primitive? Well, I like to use macros to create new syntax, which AFAICT you can't do that with Nim. I'm used to using 'define-syntax' in Scheme, and Nim's macro system seems to be far less robust than that. I guess that's the price paid for non-homoiconic syntax. I just don't see anything new and exiciting in Nim. :(
