Ruby has a turtle mode.

% irb

It doesn't do turtle graphics, but it is slow as fuck.

this article is a real trolling gem!

Python is the most conventional-looking of the popular scripting languages. It scripts and reads more like a system language than a scripting language, so those who know another programming language will feel right at home. If you or your customers don't have a programming background, however, Tcl's "command language" approach might be more comfortable. As a scripting language, Python is excellent for CGI server-side Web work, small database reporting tasks, system administration, and automation of legacy components.  In contrast to other scripting languages, Python implements object-oriented designs naturally. Python was designed to scale well, and it does.

When van Rossum designed Python he avoided the mistakes he saw in traditional languages. Particularly, he cleansed Python of the problems for which C is notorious. Python's array constructs, for example, are prone to far fewer errors. Python performs automatic memory management, and therefore immediately eliminates most of the memory leaks to which C and C++ projects are prone.Python checks array references for boundary violations. "Python never dumps core because of user coding errors--you are guaranteed to get a Python traceback," as van Rossum proudly points out. Moreover, Python has powerful built-in datatypes (including tuples, dictionaries, and lists) that dramatically simplify much of conventional coding. Finally, Python's syntax is particularly simple and comprehensible. It is a very uniform language.

Instead you have hipster scoping (no distinction between declaration and assignment) and its associated problems. Honestly, I prefer core dumps.

Uh, almost all modern languages have those.

Finally, Python's syntax is particularly simple and comprehensible.
One word: the Forced Indentation of Code.

It is a very uniform language.
Not really, its functional programming support especially is nonsensical. See the Python kopipe for more examples.

It... does?

Python performs automatic memory management
Yup, that's pretty standard too.

Maybe...

But does it allows you to play online games, chat with people around the world, calculate your mortgage interest, and view images in 3D, just to name a few.???? It's also integral to the intranet applications and other e-business solutions that are the foundation of corporate computing.??????

There are no jews. Please continue with this vaguely programming-related discussion.

Disregarding your almost unintelligibility, one might ask oneself: Why were those things written in Python? Answer: There is no reason integral to the existence of the application in question.
That is, without Python, they would have still come into existence anyway; they were written out of necessity, not because someone wanted to write something in Python. It's just incidental that the implementation language isn't anything else. You dig?

all scripting languages have all those features and it would be stupid if they didnt. They have garbage collection, bounds checking arrays, lists, hashes, class based object orientation. The fact that Guido lists these things as personal innovations to scripting language design proves what a lame scripting language Python is compared to other scripting languages.

Typical kikes and 1/2 kikes have sloped skull (easy to see due to early loss of hair due to genetic disorders), curly nigger-like hair, prognathism (big lower jaw, protruding forward), darkened skin (due to nigger ancestry), almond-shaped eyes (or just big eyes), enormous distance between eyes, puffy nigger lips, ingrown earlobes, acute ears (growing at significant angle), different nipples form and color. Some kikes also have this specific Jewish stench.
