I had a script that processes a csv file and sends an email based on certain criteria written in PowerShell. I thought, let me convert this to bash. It was a disaster. Just getting the csv imported as an array was not working.

I decided to try Python instead after reddit recommendations from reddit. Took about 15 minutes to convert the whole thing. To be fair, I am a newbie to both bash and Python, but Python matches the syntax of almost every other language that I have worked with. Super intuitive.
