Yes, I agree completely. Indeed, I would say the same thing in reverse if Swift was taking over the world of scripting (a bit like how people propose Kotlin and Scala as scripting languages ...). Using those languages for interactive analysis & high level scripting is as bad an idea as using Python for building a complex application with large numbers of rich data structures.
- sk0g 8y ago> using Python for building a complex application with large numbers of rich data structures. Eh, you don't need to though. Python can be the glue for your tools, if you will. Writing the meaty parts can be done in C/++, while you glue everything together in Python, giving you the best of both performance and ease of writing.
