I think it's reasonable to say that python is outside of most definitions of simple. Compare to e.g. JS for similar
-
Haven't done more than a couple hundred lines of JS. But I'm not a developer so I'm biased in many ways.
-
I don't strongly recommend it. I much prefer python. But the relative language complexity is rather large
-
In the direction of Python I assume?
-
yeah. JS has some some weird semantics, but a relatively small core of them. Python just has a lot of different rules
-
It certainly does. Not a big problem imho.
-
it depends on what you're trying to do. It's a big problem in that it's a large part of the 2/3 and pypy/cpython splits
-
True. Although I've already forgotten what the latter split is even about.
