What are the advantages of Python over Ruby? They both
look pretty good sytactically. Python seems slightly
more readable, but that's probably just because I know
Python. Ruby does have annoying end keywords, but in
Python, you have to write "self." before every
variable within a class, whereas in Ruby you just
prefix it with "$". Ruby typically writes shorter
code, and I think that's pretty important (it's
partially why I chose Python).
