'Python is mostly a "glue" language'
100% disagree, yes it may be used for that, but it's a fully fledged language, people use it for data science or for backend business logic.
- lanstin 2y agoThe data science uses are all using it for glueing a bit of data massage/data gathering into their high performance math/ML libraries. Django users are using it natively, and cherryPy/etc. Python full-stack maybe, but they'll have DB drivers and JSON parsers probably from C.
- tcfhgj 2y agoIn data science mostly as glue code by design using frameworks which do the heavy work in native machine code.
- TZubiri 2y agoSure, dependency wise. But the main business logic is in python, how is that python being the glue, more like the brain.
