learning to like python

@yashasolutions it's a pretty good language. What things are you enjoying, and where are you coming from (experience, languages)?
@yashasolutions cool! Yeah, the ecosystem is where the gold is. The syntax is okay, if you have more taste than I have for semantic whitespace. And it's great to see principle-driven languages that follow some philosophy, rather than rush (eg JavaScript) or committee (eg PHP). Python's emphasis on TOOWTDI and "readability", whether you feel those philosophies are right or not, put it miles ahead of misguided languages.
@worldsendless i started to use it for data manipulation and file format wrangling and i really enjoy the no-fuss combined and the range of library to manipulate all this stuff.
today I am mostly doing js and golang (been doing other stuff before, C / java / ruby / php) but never really got around python, and it's really fun to explore
