  • Python Success Stories

    ...anyway. It's hard to blame anyone, on seeing this Python feature, for initially reacting as though they had unexpectedly stepped in a steaming pile of dinosaur dung. That's certainly how I felt. I skimmed through the rest of the language description without much interest. I didn't see much else to recommend Python, except maybe that the syntax seemed rather cleaner than Perl's and the facilities for doing basic GUI elements like buttons and menus looked fairly good. I put the book back on the sh...

    ...any times as incompatible extensions merely proves this point.) General languages, on the other hand, usually aren't as good in any particular domain. For example, it is much harder to write a program in a general language to format a paragraph of text than it is in HTML. However, general languages make up for this through their Turing-completeness, which makes it possible to solve any problem that might come up (assuming availability of sufficient resources). General languages are theref...
