Welcome to the Chata programming language (github.com)

Hi everyone, this is a little project I've been working on. Chata is a programming language that's just for DSP or Digital Signal Processing.

DSP is the core technology behind a lot of fancy things like noise cancelling headphones, medical radiology equipment, and other advanced mathy things like that. Unfortunately, it's hard to deal with unless you want a barrage of bespoke, often closed-source tools and libraries.

The idea behind Chata is to get rid of everything you don't need for DSP in order to make it easier and freer to do awesome stuff with DSP. If you're wondering where I got the motivation to do this, just scroll to the bottom or look at my Lemmy username!

Seems like a good idea, I'm hoping that the syntax is sane. As far as languages goes, I think you're missing out on G'MIC to compare as it does have things like FFT and other tools all for image processing which is just part of digital signal processing. And then, there's Python with libraries and so on.
