I'll take your word for it, in my narrow experience, I've found 
REPLs slow me down.
And as for graphing math problems, I found MatLab, Mathematica or 
even OSX's "Grapher" to be sufficient for my usages (when I was a 
student).

In any event, I wouldn't consider a language "rubbish" because it 
doesn't have a REPL.
