Unfortunately as long as do, you'll find Python a less-than-satisfying experience. And I'm a bit surprised too because if you tried to program C# as you would C++, you'd likely also be frustrated. C, C++, and C# all demand different programming paradigms and even styles (despite the similarity in the braces). Yet you got used to that.
