One said: English is the language spoken in England. Another One said: English is the language internationally used for commerce, academics and much else. Who is 'true'? Is one false because the other is true? [Amusing that this is being said at the same time as a necroposted thread about the multi-meanings of bool in python] More seriously: Python is one of the first serious programming languages and scripting languages. Those who think that one excludes the other are probably learnt their programming/CS half a century ago and stopped learning soon after. For many such mis-takes in CS education see my: http://blog.languager.org/2011/02/cs-education-is-fat-and-weak-1.html and its sequel http://blog.languager.org/2011/02/cs-education-is-fat-and-weak-2.html -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
