Python and the Programmer (artima.com)
artima.com interviews
Bruce Eckel, the author of Thinking in Java, about Python.
"I feel Python was designed for the person who is actually doing the
programming, to maximize their productivity. And that just makes me feel
warm and fuzzy all over. I feel nobody is going to be telling me, 'Oh yeah,
you have to jump through all these hoops for one reason or another.' When
you have the experience of really being able to be as productive as
possible, then you start to get pissed off at other languages."

Python and the Programmer (artima.com) Posted Jun 4, 2003 18:20 UTC (Wed) by humberto (guest, #70) [Link] Caution, the linked article on artima.com crashes my galeon (v 1.2.6)
Python and the Programmer (artima.com) Posted Jun 5, 2003 16:39 UTC (Thu) by tjc (guest, #137) [Link] Works (for me) with Galeon 1.3.4, although I woke up this morning with ugly fonts. :-( One of the downsides of running Debian unstable.Interesting article. I read "Thinking in C++" in what now seems like a previous life. I'm looking forward to the next installment of this article. Bruce may persuade me to switch from PHP to Python. PHP is very nice, but the only reason I use it is that I learned it for a job and I've had no real reason to switch.
