More than this, C is from the 70s, and C++ is from the 80s.
This is 50 years from now for C. So I'd say python is likely to be still here 20 years from now, given how popular it is.
- cygx 7y agoPython will still be around, but how popular it'll be is an open question. For example, Pascal or Perl were huge in their prime, and while they continue to stick around, the torch has been passed on.
- goatlover 7y agoSure, but if Julia relegates Python to a niche and Rust does the same thing to C, they're still the same kind of approach to programming, and not some high level, mostly automated thing. They don't fundamentally change how people program.
