Python		Apr 2 2006

MILLENNIUMX  "One of the worst "features" of Python is that indentation is part of the syntax."

So, do you indent your code in other languages? Of course you do; it's one of the first things any decent programmer learns to do.

Given that, what's the problem? All it does is help keep the code readable.

TUISHIMI  That whole "indentation" claim used AGAINST Python really irks me. It is one of the best features of one of the most easy-to-learn languages available.

I agree with your comments.

WRELEVEN  Since most developers already indent in a compatible way it's not the main issue. I know I felt weird about losing the { and } brackets though. They were like visual safety belts. I'm comfortable with Python now, I'm happen to trade them in for a better language.
