> A language with meaningful whitespace and indentation does not make a good language for UART or other serial interaction I mean its almost irrelevant to the ability to handle serial, unless you are exec'ing raw serial, which is going to make everyone sad. I have found that bitbanging in python a bit of an arse. Using the struct library isn't as forgiving (or dangerous) as it is in C. But on the flip side it does force you to properly define your binary serial protocol, unless you want loads of exceptions. Arduino is grand, and fun. But where the python like languages shine is higher level stuff, like networking.
