DESCRIPTION:Programming languages used in Scientific Computing have evolve
 d from Fortran to Python\, but many languages are still actively used and 
 are important in the ecosystem (C\, C++\, R). New languages made specifica
 lly for solving problems of the scientific ecosystem have been created (Ju
 lia). Is there space for one more? Why is Nim\, a general purpose statical
 ly typed and compiled language\, a good fit for Scientific Computing? We w
 ill make a quick travel around seven islands that represent important them
 es where Nim shows its powers. The talk will not hide where Nim falls shor
 t.
