Howdy!
By a quirk of timing, this was revealed to me at the same
time I posted my reply that appeared immediately above it.
It took me a moment's careful looking to confirm that it
wasn't aimed at me...however, the shoe fits :)
Right now, my new employer (big sigh of relief over
leaving the coprs of the unemployed) wants me to come
up to speed on the tools they use, and Python isn't one of
them, but Perl is. I've already caused the head tech in my
group to suggest that we need to use Perl a lot more (vice
Korn shell, mostly).
I keep telling myself that it might be useful to take a
real look at Python (or Java), but somehow it never makes
it high enough on my priority list.
I call it laziness...you might call it sloth. I might even
not disagree.
yours,
Michael
Update: I got it in one; I'm just explaining why
that approach is not suited to my situation at this time.
I took all your points to be implicit... |
