Comparisons between Java with exception handling and a scripting language with a one liner that does no error checking are pretty worthless.

- djacobs 16y agoThe point is: when I'm writing a script (or better yet, doing this interactively), I don't want error checking. I see an error, and I fix it. This article centers around agile scripting for science, not building enterprise applications or libraries. The point is not that the two samples are exactly equivalent. The points is that you can go no simpler with Java's standard libraries.
