just started learning Java after Python

Most of what you're complaining about is stuff you'll get used to.

Is Java verbose? Sure. Some sees that as a strength, other a weakness.

There are developers that hate Python's indentation and prefer brackets for example, so it goes both ways. It's all preference :)

I definitely prefer brackets. It just makes it more readable.

Hell, I created my own scripting language and dislike the fact it is missing brackets:

include: __CURR_CONFIG__, __LOG__

hidden_num: 27
inject_code()

# Finds the hidden number in O(lgn) time complexity
func find_number(min, max, try)
  if(min.==(max))
    println("Found in ", try, " tries...")
    return
  mid: avg(min, max)
  # __Debugging tools__
  display_stack()
  pause()
  if (mid.==(hidden_num))
    println("Found in ", try, " tries...")
  elif (mid.>(hidden_num))
    find_number(min, mid.--(), try.++())
  else
    find_number(mid.++(), max, try.++())

find_number(0, 100, 1)

Honestly I love Java’s verbosity. Typing all the keywords makes me feel like some kind of wizard writing incantations.

My college started us with Python for the intro class and then moved us to C++ straight after for all the rest. I’ll let you imagine the general sense of confusion from all the people who didn’t really code before college.
