Comment on Will Wall Street require Python?parent

Comments

It'd be incredibly stupid. The language and some other programming languages don't even have proper standards written out or they change on the whims on their creators or community. Which version of Python will you use? 2.x or 3? Oh hey and will you use the map and filter functions or use generators instead or maybe you'll use a for-loop? What are the rules for that?

Don't kid yourself, there's still a lot of room for ambiguity.

You may be able to obfuscate the code, but so long as the investor can easily test your model with values of their choice, it doesn't matter if you use a map or a for-loop.
