1. Does what it is designed to do.
2. No extra cruft.
3. Does not suffer any performance penalties dues to poor algorithms.
4. Does not complicate itself by attempting to optimise algorithms which
don't need to be.
Of course, this is more a reflection of the elegance of Python itself ...
public class HelloWorld
{
public static void main (String argv[] )
{
System.out.println("Hello, world!");
}
}
