And VisualBasic’s syntax is easier than COBOL, but this isn’t a competition to make the least offensive heap of putrid garbage, so why does it matter?
Python works just fine for basic scripts, frankly it’s amazing for it, but oop and functional programming is so incredibly obviously badly shoehorned in that huge swathes needs scrapping and version 4 releasing
I think you’re missing the forest for the trees here pretty heavily.
Yes, Python has some goofy aspects about managing it while performing high level, in depth tasks.
This is a post and a comment chain about pseudocode being taught to people who likely just learned what a “programming language” was several weeks ago. Essentially no one taking the GCSE knows what “bash-like scripts” even means.
I mean once you get beyond bash-like scripts python is esoteric as fuck, adding oop to what is essentially a shell is a terrible idea
That said, there’s plenty of languages with good syntax that is still good when you get into more complex stuff (modern C#, scala, kotlin and more)
What part(s) of python do you think is esoteric?
Wut
I disagree. Python is not “esoteric” when making objects. The syntax is certainly easier than in Java.

Then help me understand please. What do you mean by “esoteric” in regards to oop in Python compared to a language better suited for it?
The only thing esoteric about python is the bolted-on typing and anything behind a double underscore.
So yeah, it’s there, but in front of the curtain it’s practically pseudo code.
