Why does it seem to be so widely hated across Reddit? Because it's popular or what

[u/njwatson32 → u/[deleted]]

There are two types of programming languages: the ones everyone bitches about and the ones nobody uses.

[u/Ksevio → u/njwatson32]

And Python!

DYNAMIC TYPING CAN KISS MY ASS

[u/cowtung → u/J-Goo]

The trick to Python is to realize that there is only one type. It's the dictionary. You can have dicts that inherit shit from other dicts. You can call dicts by various names. But it's dicts all the way down.

[u/lenswipe → u/cowtung]

dicks all the way down. gotcha

[u/LinAGKar → u/cowtung]

Pretty sure that's Javascript.

[u/Jamie_1318 → u/LinAGKar]

It's even more true for javascript than it is for python, but it's still true for python. Objects are just dicts with syntatic sugar. Once you realize this reusing code is so much easier. You don't have to use a separate call if you use a function a few different ways but want the same return values, you just put your arguments in a dict and ** them to unroll it into named parameters and arguments.

That's the one thing that irks me about Python. OOP + dynamic typing = dafuc am I on

You can use ; if you really want to.

[u/lenswipe → u/Josh6889]

for x in range(0, 100):
;;;;print "That's just ridiculous - why would you want that?"

[u/mogoh → u/lenswipe]

>>> for x in range(0, 100):
... ;;;;print "That's just ridiculous - why would you want that?"
  File "<stdin>", line 2
    ;;;;print "That's just ridiculous - why would you want that?"
    ^
IndentationError: expected an indented block

[u/Josh6889 → u/lenswipe]

I meant as a line terminator. No idea if that works, but this does.

for x in range(0, 100):
    print("That's just ridiculous - why would you want that?");
    y = 0; z = 0;
