Anything like SciPy in Ruby?

Looking further into the differences between Python and Ruby, is there a Ruby equivalent to SciPy, or what other scientific math gems are available for Ruby?

Someone else mentioned NArray and Ara T. Howard's / @drawohara's SciRuby.

But there's also a new SciRuby project (proceeding with Ara's and Masahiro Tanaka's blessings) which includes a dense and sparse matrix gem, NMatrix. It's not finished yet, but it does basic stuff.

The SciRuby github account also has a bunch of other useful gems, including statsample (for statistics) and rubyvis (for visualization).

There's nothing quite as mature or well done as SciPy, but check out SciRuby and Numerical Ruby.
