Everyone knows Python is green and Ruby is red...
- thaumasiotes 2y ago> Everyone knows Python is green ...why?
- TehCorwiz 2y agoSssssomething about the namesssss.
- thaumasiotes 2y agoAnd that would be...? Pythons aren't green. It's like saying everyone knows Perl is blue, because it's represented by a camel. Here's the least reality-informed, most popularly well-known image of a python you can find: https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/villains/images/a/a1/Kaa_Official.png/revision/latest?cb=20180301004815 https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/villains/images/a/a1/Kaa_O...
- yunwal 2y agoPython has always been blue and yellow
- airstrike 2y agoI meant it more "if anyone's green, then it's Python, not Ruby". I still associate Python with green because of the typical cartoon color of snakes + Django
- i80and 2y agoI had to dig into this, because I also felt Python is green. The Python logo has been blue/yellow in the modern era and monochromatic prior, but the Python IDLE icon DID used to be green[1]. Which in practice probably cemented into my brain very early on, since I learned Python with IDLE!
