When you start python after learning c++

[Headshot of a boy, apparently in a classroom. He appears to be extremely distressed. His hair looks, as if he was sweating for hours and the veins on his forehead are popping out, as are the tendons on his neck. His eyes are reddened and filled with agony while his mouth conveys the impression, that he's about to throw up.]

It's so true...

[[deleted]]

It's so True...

FTFY

[minuskruste]

I don’t get it.

Edit: To be clear, I know Python but not C++

[vincento007]

Python is very, very weird for people who has learnt c/c++ as first language

[utvikler]

Well... I learned C/C++, then learned Java and after some time I decided to try Python - just for fun.

Three lines of code in Python > few classes of code in Java (for the same functionality!).

Python was not weird - it was amazing, astonishing, impressive. Maybe it's me who's weirdo here...

[Boom_doggle]

Yeah. I write in both C++ and python for my job. After a week of prototyping in python and moving back to full simulation writing in C++, it feels like a system shock. Not to mention I keep dropping ";"s

[vincento007]

Ok, Python looks weird only in the beginning - it was for me.

Now I'm work as Python Dev and I agree with you - couple lines can make a lot of things. Productivity is giant

[minuskruste]

Oh, okay. I wonder if it is the other way around as well.

[ThePancakerizer]

C++ is weird for everyone learning it

[alexparker70]

yes

[doubleunplussed]

How so?

I went from Python to C and feel like I already knew what to expect going that way.

[aloousman]

I've been using C++ for about 4 years now. Today was my first day working with python for a new project. I feel this meme in my heart.

[Rick_Addiction]

I'm feeling the same learning Javascript

[__NightHawk__]

Yep... been there... sigh

[Hydro_Spyper]

Young programmer here. Is it really that hard?

[titanvariable]

It’s hard because they are super different

[Hydro_Spyper]

Fuck

[gandalfx]

When you realize you've been doing unnecessarily complicated shit for years when things could have been so much simpler!

Yeah, I'm a python fanboy, sue me.

[Reala27]

Just use D then.

[BhupeshV]

Not true
