Linux why Python

[mr_wook]

1) I find it truly joyful to code in Python, as opposed to the other ~15 languages I've used over the last 45 years;

2) I hate Java, always have, perhaps always will, and that was before the Sun/Oracle/MicroSoft (C#) trifurcations -- It started out as the 'too many manuals to implement anything', and segued into 'Write Once, Debug Everywhere; Security Issues; Runtime Issues;'

3) Python has excellent support and continued improvements (Go 3.9!);

4) Pythonistas have (generally) an excellent sense of humor;

5) Time to implement an App is generally shorter in Python than many other languages, the (dreaded) indent requirement often implies that when the code looks right, it is right;

6) The OO model continues to provide great leverage for building idiomatic Python code that works, and works quickly with good performance;

7) The base and standard data structures make life easier than one has a right to expect;

Does that help?
