As engineer within the pass 10 years, I believe everyone in the field is familiar with the "Unta" programming language (Perl). Recently another language is becoming hotter and hotter, the so called "ular sawa" language (Python).
After listening to all the benefits and the good things about the language, I'm curious and go search through "Google" and try to look at the features…
Python – OOP, Interpreted (no compilation needed), Interactive (Able to interact directly with the interpreter), beginner's language, supported for lots of platform (web design, database, and etc…..)
As an experience programmer (but not a good programmer), I try to seek through other languages features as well (out of curiosity). After one day of reading and searching (I love Google), I'm totally confused…Perl say the same thing, Java say the same thing, C++ say almost the same thing (except you need to compile it), so it really make me curious why "Ular sawa"?
Some people claim that it is better, some people say that EDA tools are mostly supporting it, some people say that it is the "one" language for the future…..
Well, it is not a language hard to learn, since it is very similar to Java/C++ for the OOP style; very similar to Perl for the scripting style; very similar with Ruby for the formatting…
The plus point for me, it adds to my inventory of my programming language collections (added from 7 languages to know 8)……
Is Python really the right language? I don't know, I just hope that there is no more genius who suddenly create more and more programming language like "Piranha", "lion", "tiger", "crocodile", "llama", "hyppo", "panda", "kangaroo" and whatever waramashit languages…….let's just stick to one and make it the best…….:P
