If I may: but Haskell does not combine those features you mentioned
above? It is efficient as C++ (or at least the same order of magnitude),
is minimalist in the syntax like Lua and Python, you can work with
semicolons or newlines ("I don't care"), and it's functional (not
procedural)? And it's also type safe as none of the above (as java). Not
sure about the user base, but it is growing fast.
