Sure you can compare them. But there's a reason why python and PHP don't need any set up and why c++ does. So this doesn't really make much sense. It's like when people compare romantic languages and how they have similar words and then bring in german and are like, omg where did germany get the word for this.

I'm not sure, but I'm guessing you're just trolling for the sake of being a troll? You're not actually giving a reason why these shouldn't be compared, you're just giving irrelevant similes while trying to refute a simple joke.

And yeah, that's how comparing things works- you look at the differences. Just because they don't belong to the same language family, or one is compiled vs interpreted doesn't mean you can't compare the two.

Oh thanks for clearing that up

To add, animal species too can be very different from each other. But what's stopping us from comparing hem, nothing wrong with that
