I think it is weird that it is 5 years younger than Python. I only heard about Python much later.

- hugs 6y agoLike in Aesop's fable, Python was a "tortoise" to many other languages "hare". Many languages (especially BASIC, Perl, PHP, Java, and Ruby) had moments where they had an extreme amount of attention in a short amount of time. Python never had its one defining "moment" (like Sun announcing and hyping Java), but Python steadily grew in usage nevertheless the whole time.
