Comment on LPython: Novel, Fast, Retargetable Python Compiler (2023)parent

Comments

Maybe I’m just suffering from Stockholm syndrome but I haven’t really had trouble using most libraries in Python. I do agree however that Python makes it harder to write reusable code.

To quote Bjarne Stroustrup there are only two kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses :).

I'm sure some Python libraries are good, but I use pandas all the time and I hate it all the time.
