Coghlan: 27 languages to improve your Python [LWN.net]
Posted October, Corbet
[Development] Posted Oct 25, 2015 1:00 UTC (Sun) by corbet Python language developer Nick Coghlan has posted a survey of 27 languages that, he thinks, have lessons for Python. One of the things we do as part of the Python core development process is to look at features we appreciate having available in other languages we have experience with, and see whether or not there is a way to adapt them to be useful in making Python code easier to both read and write. This means that learning another programming language that focuses more specifically on a given style of software development can help improve anyone’s understanding of that style of programming in the context of Python.
