Then you see my point, unless you are being told what to use by a boss then
there are plenty of other languages you can choose from. Python is rigid
about it's format, that's just what it is and a lot of people like it but
if it's not your thing then some other language will probably suit you
better. However, if you are working for a company, or OSS project, you are
probably going to have your style dictated whatever language you use, for
example the 2 space indents (*shudder*) that google uses in c++
http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/cppguide.xml?showone=Spaces_vs._Tabs#Spaces_vs._Tabs
(Interestingly
google use 4 space indents in python for compatibility with PEP-8
http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pyguide.html?showone=Indentation#Indentation
)
You probably won't like everything in a project style but it's not about
being tyrannical, and it's not a bad thing to have restrictions at the
language level.
I work for a company with a load of lagacy c formatted as follows:
int many_many_globals;
int func(int iFoo,int iBar)
{
int var = 10;
if(iBar>1)
{
var=iFoo+many_many_globals;
}
return var;
}
So i am pretty happy to adopt a language which defines a sane style.
This is a nice flame war you have stirred up.
