What Is Julia?
The Julia is open source programming language was designed from the beginning for high-performance.

Compiled, not interpreted, for speed. Julia is just-in-time (JIT) compiled using the LLVM compiler framework. Julia can approach or match the speed of C.

Julia is dynamic typing with static type benefits, feels like a scripting language, and easy to use.

Julia has a rich language of descriptive data-types, and type declarations can be used to clarify and solidify programs.

The Julia created in 2009 by a four-person team - Jeff Bezanson, Alan Edelman, Stefan Karpinski, and Viral B. Shah.

The Julia was designed for scientific and numerical computation. The Julia first appeared 2012; 7 years ago and the stable release 1.1.0 in 21 January 2019.

Julia’s syntax is very similar to Python, but also expressive and powerful. Python, C, and FORTRAN libraries are just a call away.

6.      A built-in package manager
7.      Lisp-like macros and other meta-programming facilities
8.      Powerful shell-like abilities to manage other processes
9.      Designed for parallel and distributed computing
10. Coroutines: lightweight green threading
11. User-defined types are as fast and compact as built-ins
12. Elegant and extensible conversions and promotions for numeric and other types
13. Efficient support for Unicode, including but not limited to UTF-8
14. Automatic generation of efficient, specialized code for different argument types

2.      Easy to use
3.      Julia has attracted some high-profile clients
4.      Julia feels like a scripting language

Is Julia a functional language?
No! Julia is not a functional programming language. Julia offers features that are present in functional programming languages and can be used to a certain degree for coding in a functional programming style.

Is Julia a compiled language?
Yes! Julia is compiled, like C.

Is Julia object oriented?
No! Julia is not object-oriented because there is no inheritance.

Is Julia a scripting language?
Yes! Julia is a scripting language because Julia is an interpreted, embeddable language that features just-in-time (JIT) compilation.

Is Julia statically typed?
No! Julia is always dynamically typed and type annotations do not make it static.
