Right, Python is the new Perl and people are misunderstanding what that means.

The whole point of Python is that it abstracts away the low level stuff and you simply “import” and attack the problem you’re actually looking at. It’s optimal for allowing people who don’t have lots of algorithm design memorised to do higher level comp sci.

Python’s optimal use case does not relate to speed.

Then no one would really use Python then? It's far too slow
