    Magic incantations which you learn on the first day of CS101 and can reGoogle at will don't hurt your ability to read or write code. Besides, Eclipse will write it for you anyhow. If you want to take a potshot at Java syntax, look at the among of cruft you need to accomplish common, trivial tasks: Map<String, Object> cond = new HashMap<String, Object>(); /* do something with cond */ for (Entry<String, Object> entry : cond.entrySet()) { System.out.println("Key : " + entry.key() + " => " + entry.value()); } versus, e.g., ruby cond = {} # do something with cond cond.each {|key, value| puts "#{key} => #{value}"}
