Jokes aside, I struggle more with abominations like JavaScript and even Python.
Yeah JavaScript is a bit weird, semicolons being optional and compulsory at the same time: I remember trying to build an electron example ~5yrs ago and it didn't work unless I put in the semicolons which the developers omitted.
Python is just glorified shell scripting. Libraries like numpy are cool but I don't like the indentation crap, I'm getting used to it because University likes it.
Absolutely not, python is an actual programming language with sane error handling and arbitrarily nestable data structures.
Don't be so superficial. When learning something, go with the flow and try to work with the design choices, not against them.
Python simply writes a bit differently: you do e.g. more function definitions and list comprehensions.
Yeah I meant for that to be a bit inflammatory. I actually don't mind python apart from the execution speed, but the indentation I find makes it more difficult to read stuff that is extremely nested. I use it mostly for creating plots and basic stuff for my science degree but for any serious project I wouldn't consider it
