How clean/elegant is Python's syntax?

[Ma Xiaojun]

A bit more context.

If visiting z.cn (Amazon China), one can see that there are plenty of
new (published in 2010 or later) books on QBASIC, Visual Basic, Visual
Foxpro.

This is weird, if one want to do development legally these tools won't
be a option for new programmers.

However, I also like to know whether there are any technical arguments
that Python is superior in the context of education.

For pure procedural paradigm, I haven't seen much advantages of Python.
Yes, Python has true OOP but I don't like this argument since I don't
like Java-ism true OOP.
Yes, Python has much more libraries. But it seems that Python is more
useful and suitable in CLI and Web applications. People are still
discussing whether to replace tkinter with wxPython or not. VB and VFP
people are never bothered with such issue.
