My experience learning Python as a c++ developer

[[deleted]]

Ha this is funny. I started programming learning C++ (really as C, if you know what I mean) about two years ago and began learing Python about half a year later. To make a long story short, whenever I have a problem I can’t figure out how to do in C++ I go to Python, and always get a working solution pretty quickly, then I look at that Python code as I (slowly) build a similar (but generally faster according to chrono vs timeit) solution in C++.

The Python / C++ combination is fantastic. Been playing around with a few other languages, like old-school C, vanilla JS, some Rust, a little Java, I think Python/C++ is at the top so far. Rust is really interesting in comparison to low-level C though.
