>>116I honestly tried to read what you said, but I couldn't finish it because of your complete lack of capitalization and the confusing way you flow in and out of quotes/rhetorical questions. From the little I read, you seem to have completely missed the point
>>111 was making about Python's syntax, which is that it has flaws like
self which make its design
self-contradictory. I would add that a clean syntax is
one of Python's core selling points. If being explicit is good, then why is it `pythonic' to use the colon-appendation instead of consistently using a function named something like
append? If, on the other hand, syntactic brevity is desired, then as
>>111 pointed out, use of
: in flow controls is unexpected and makes no sense. If a language which advertises itself on the basis of good syntax can't get good syntax right, why should I bother with it?
I don't know if you bothered to move on to something more interesting by the end of your post. Maybe if you reformat it I'll read it. Probably not.
