The first two visitors were an older couple and their grandson from Florida. He specified to his grandfather that at the top of his list of things to do was to come visit our museum. He was a finance major, but had learned to program in the "R programming language". I had never heard of this, R is an interpreted programming language and large software ecosystem that is targeted primarily at statistical math. However, it's really more of a "mathematical Swiss army knife", for lots of things that have nothing to do with statistics. I use it all the time for things like curve fitting to generate coefficients for sensor response linearization in firmware. It's amazingly powerful and a real pleasure to use.
