I agree with you 100%.

I know java can be a little hard on beginners

but it's a good asset to have assuming you'll become a professional programmer. But all the sudden, and out of nowhere, Cerulean jumps me with his false advertisement and starts bashing Java and degrading it in front of the almighty Python.

I say False advertisement because multiple inheritance is possible in java by using interfaces and java runs on JVM which can be downloaded for windows, MacOS, and most Linux distros AND which also guaranties that your program will run identically across systems.

EDIT: And who said you can only have one class per file, you got it all wrong buddy. You're only allowed one PUBLIC class per file but you can have as many private classes as you want to be used within that file.
