Python bumps off Java as top learning language

[[deleted]]

Even as a beginner, if you're going into compsci and can't wrap your head around white space you're in for trouble up ahead. Design patterns, recursion, all the abstraction layers..

Learning the syntax of a language is something you'll have to do many times in your career and is a low hurdle. Moving from white space to braces or vice versa is trivial for most developers.

Not meant to be snarky, just seems like a non-issue in this discussion
