RE: Introducing a public Hivemind node

in #hivemind6 years ago (edited)

So, we have a few nodejs maximalists on the SFR discord and I feel a bit outnumbered being more inclined to use Python.

Perhaps it's just because it was the first one I started learning but had dabbled with Java back in my high school Comp Sci.

How would you describe the advantages of Python over other languages?

Contrasted from PowerShell (which I believe is a language based around .net), I know that Python seems to be much more slim syntactically. (Ie for loops much simpler. Forgot those damn curly braces!)

IIRC Java is a compiled language while Python is interpreted so perhaps that has some significance.
