In python you can just do 5 < x < 10

  which is also the proper way you would read in any scientific paper, and very easy to read imho. 5 < x && x < 10 is the attempt to replicate this in other languages but falls a bit short

    > 5 < x && x < 10 is the attempt to replicate this in other languages but falls a bit short On the contrary, it's Python that added the shorthand, mathematical-looking notation because the longer "desugared" form wasn't great.

      That's not the contrary, it is exactly what the other comment said ;). "To fall short" == "to not be great"
