I searched over and under in this forum for anything related to Python. Does anyone else around here know Python?

Im learning python, though I don't fully understand everything about it yet.

At least someone else is interested in Python, or doing something involved with Python. I'd have to say it's the easiest language I know. (Well, besides HTML, CSS, and all of those )

I love Python

It's good in many aspects, and shines in OOP/ease of use, but I haven't used it much. I like C++ and VB more. Maybe I'll get back into python though, who knows?

I mainly only use Python for personal use, in fact, I haven't released one Python script to the public. [addsig]

I'm probably going to have to learn it for use with Blender. [addsig]

I don't really like how it forces a certain style of indentation on the programmer. I suppose it's beneficial in some respects, but I personally consider it a bit annoying. Other than that, it's a pretty fine language.

Well, considering I use an interpretor, I don't really mind the indentation, since it automatically does it. But, I looooove Python.

(Not as much as my right hand woman PHP though ) [addsig]

how else would you indent it?

What he means is, not indent it at all. Or, prog it just like you would for anything else, with spaces here, comments there, and more so it's easier to read. Which of the two is easier to read?

Code:
<?php
function whichissmaller($one,$two) { if ($one < $two) { echo "One's smaller"; } else { echo "Second's smaller"; } }
whichissmaller(7,4);
?>


or

Code:
<?php
function whichissmaller($one,$two) {
if ($one < $two) {
echo "One's smaller";
} else {
echo "Second's smaller";
}
}

whichissmaller(7,4);

?>


Obviously, the first one is easier to read/understand.
