Default Re: Disadvantages of the Python programming language

Hi,

There are some disadvantages to Python:
Speed:
Python is executed by an interpreter instead of compilation, In which cause to be slower than if it would be compiled and then executed. However, for most applications, it is by far fast enough.
Too Easy:
Harder to write quick and dirty programs than Perl, not as popular as Perl.

Here are some that i know of so far :

ADVANTAGES :

1. You can have different types of variables in an array
2. The for loop seems bit quicker to write
3. You don't have to use $ in front of variables
4. You don't have to specify types of variables
5. You don't have to use ; at the end of each line
6. You use indents instead of parentheses
7. The % operand allows quicker scripting workflow


DISADVANTAGES :

1. You have to echo MEL commands first and then translate all that in python code which is time consuming.Echo all for python would be very usefull in next maya versions.


Well that is what i know so far or at least what i can think of now.As i said i am beginner in python so...
