C++: "Hey, what's your name?"
Python: *grabs C++* "what is my name?"
please explain I want to laugh
Pythons weak typing means it never knows what is what. It’s up to the programmer to not screw it up.
I think it's more that a ton of popular python libraries (things like pandas, tensor, etc) are actually built in C, so python is just C wearing a mask
Not just libraries, the entire language itself is actually C under the hood
Python is strongly typed. I get your point since it is dynamically typed, but still strongly.
not really what i was going for
one of python's strong suits is it's foreign function interface. it's very easy to call code in other languages from python, which can speed execution up significantly
oh alright. Cheers, heheh. I laughed
One of the main implementations of Python is CPython, which is written in C or C++
It's now cannon in my head that Python talks like Parappa the rapper
