Happy to see someone down-voting a comment that suggests you examine your requirements for a language because it dares to challenge the supremacy of python and suggests that adults are perfectly capable of choosing a language appropriate for the task, even if that language is COBOL. Stay classy, HN.
I didn’t vote, but your take on Python doesn’t match my experience. Do you have more context? It seems like after the transition to version 3, the lesson was learned. That was about a decade ago now.
2.3 to 2.5 - changed the syntax and semantics of the language by adding class variables.
2.5 to 2.7 - changed semantics by changing class variable to package variables.
Certainly you're not claiming Python hasn't made breaking changes in the syntax or semantics over the years?
I mean... this still compiles with my c compiler:
??=include
int main( argc, argv )
int argc;
char *argv[];
??
