>what about batteries? does it have the number of batteries built in and >third party modules that python has? Unfortunately no. No batteries are provided and it has to be hand cranked for now :) The language is still quite young - but because it runs on .NET/Mono (and is being ported to JVM), it should be possible to use the .NET or the Java libraries. IMPORTANT NOTICE: This is just a guess. I haven't actually used Cobra yet. What I like about Cobra is the fact that it is very similar to python but really fast, has built-in unit testing support, does not have the awful "self" parameter needed in python, catches typos at compile time rather than run time etc. By the way, Scala can use any java library - Spring framework, hibernate etc. Scala is quite similar to Cobra.
