Think about why both JavaScript and PHP need a “===” operator, while Python does not. It’s because Python is strongly typed. > ... there are a lot of libraries helping developers. Other languages have done that before. Why do you think Python has been able to leapfrog every prior language in this regard? Perl had a lot of libraries to its name (still does), and yet that no longer seems to be a good enough reason to continue using Perl, simply because Python now does it better. It’s because Python has such a strong core language on which to build extensions. The libraries tend to make heavy use of this.
