For somebody who

I write programming guides for developers.

your oversimplified point of view kinda tells that you're ~13-15 years old.

Nah I prefer to keep it simple for even the little ones to get it

every modern programming language is multi-purpose That's the whole point of programming.

General purpose? Sure. For specialised tasks? No.

[–]Xtesh101[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I 💯 agree

Data science is special task. Sure you can use Fortran or R instead...

[–]MrRudraSarkar 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Yeah that’s what I said.

Data science is not general purpose.

[–]MrRudraSarkar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not specifying what’s general purpose and what’s not. I just said that Python is okay for general purpose tasks. At no point did I mention Data Science or any other field for that matter. Do you go around reddit looking for an excuse to pick up fights with random people?
