A combination of type inference, just in time compiling and multiple dispatch. The function is compiled at run-time if the signature is not already compiled.
I've not really found the 1 index much of a problem, makes translating other code a bit awkward.
The new dynamic indexing scheme (0 based, -10 based, whatever) seems interesting.
What Julia gets me is a stats / machine learning environment I had to awkwardly program in Octave.
