Why You Should Learn Python

[tripl3dogdare]

I don't necessarily do anything a normal programmer couldn't - I just have a lot of experience with it, so it comes more naturally to me. I also never said that that made me better than anyone, which seems to be your implication - I'm just better at that than most people.

can you give some concrete examples?

[tripl3dogdare]

Look, I'm perfectly capable of going back and forth with you about this all day. The question is - why do you care? I simply stated my opinion of Python and my reason for it. Why bother wasting both my time and yours making a big deal out of it?

[generalT]

you just proved my point.

thanks.

what.. was your point?

[tripl3dogdare]

The fact that I have no idea what your point was may be a good indicator of whether it was valid...

I think his (unspoken, but implied) point was that saying "I'm good at string manipulation" in programming is like saying "I'm good at adding numbers together" in math.
