I don't because it doesn't live up to its promises. Some of the most unreadable code I have seen was Python. Pure line noise.

- coldtea 10y agoI've never seen unreadable code in Python. Care to post a sample? And even if it actually was unreadable, just consider how the equivalent would look in Perl, or C (or APL...).
- vgy7ujm 10y agoMy point was that Python written by someone that don't know how to write readable code is just as unreadable as "sysadmin" Perl. Well written Perl is actually very readable.
- jeffjose 10y agoAre you confusing Python with Perl? The latter prides itself on creating line-noise that works like magic. Python is meant to be super-readable.
- vgy7ujm 10y agoActually I find well written Perl more readable.
- brogrammernot 10y agoYeah, I often blame the wood and nails when I see a poorly built house.
