Just out of curiousity, have there been any attempts to make a version
of Python that looks like actual English text? I mean, so much of Python
is already based on the English language that it seems like the next
natural step would be to make a programming language which is actually a
spoken one.

Wow, impressive responses.
It sounds like the general consensus is that English would not be a good
choice for programming even if there were an interpreter capable of
turning human language into machine language. But that makes sense; even
English professionals have trouble understanding each

It's just like in algebra. You evaluate exponents before the - which, after
all, is just another way to write -1, or times-negative-one. However, a
variable with a negative value is not the same as a value that is being
multiplied by a negative.
-3 ** 2 = (-1)(3)^(2) in algebraic terms.

I have a peculiar problem that involves multiple inheritance and method calling.
I have a bunch of classes, one of which is called MyMixin and doesn't
inherit from anything. MyMixin expects that it will be inherited along
with one of several other classes that each define certain

I should also mention--and I should have realized this much
sooner--that each of the BaseN classes are themselves each going to
have at least one common base which will define method_x, so each
BaseN will be calling that if it defines its own method_x. Again,
