I’ve been writing few newbie programs in python since yesterday. 
My ISP’s DNS was not looking up for python.org and I had to spend few extra minutes getting the IP and accessing the ftp docs. (thanks to friends at #python @ freenode)
Few good things for me with this snake, er.. language/interpreter
1. No delimiter ( I have a bad habit of forgetting ; in my C, C++, perl, php code )
2. No angular brackets for condition statements
3. Free form language ( first encountered this in perl )
Most of the times, I am finding myself tempted to compare python code with perl; hopefully I shall get over it with time.
Talking about time, I just remembered – its time for LUG meet and I need to hurry!
