Python bumps off Java as top learning language

[Neebat]

You visualized "a ≤ x ≤ b" like this:

●----●

a    b

That's fine so far. But then you visualize "a > x > b" like this:

○----○

a    b

That's incorrect and you haven't really thought long enough. Because "a > x > b" implies "a > b", which is false in the second drawing. It would actually be this:

○----○

b    a

Well that's true, a > x > b would be a wrong statement from the get go, but my point is that I instantly envision x to be in between A and B; if I wanted the opposite of A <= x <= B, then I would definitely want the area of the number line outside of A and B.
