I love python. The idea, the syntax, the source of the name ... BUT WTF IS UP WITH NESTING WITH WHITE SPACE!? May pirates do naughty things to your nether regens.

Kylixen · Jul 24th, 2004, 8:44 PM

Nah, it's just aggrevating. They could have atleast made it possible to nest with {}'s

Are you kidding? I love the white spaces instead of brackets. There is NOTHING worse than coming to the end of a buggy java programming and finding dozens of brackets that have to be sorted out. Worse is trying to figure out where some bracket was left out and has to go in. I prefer the organized look of python.

if you code the script in one terminal type and view it in another, it tends to hammer the identation.

SON! Listen to me!

Whitespace is a godsend! Makes it look cleaner and more organized. I hate sorting through junky C/C++ code where the people don't use proper whitespacing, it just looks like junk to me! And it's harder to read if it's not spaced out!

Beeg

Hmm, I'm not realy sure what you're talking about, unless you mean Ooble's sig.

If that is the case, it isn't meant to compile, it's just programming humor.
