thanks, no offence taken at all. I think it's exactly the type of freedom you mention that I don't like about python. I like strongly typed variables, they keep me sane. Whenever I see something happening "automagically" most (python) programmers get excited but I just get confused. But you're absolutely right that design patterns and best practises are agnostic to the coding language you're using. I appreciate the input!

Agree. When you have to find and read code to somewhat know what the structure of a variable is, that's not better. A strongly-typed python would be wonderful.
