While this is as inconvenient as Python at least it doesn't catch you unawares. C# 1 (or maybe 0.5), Python 0. > C++ complains > about "!=" not being defined for class A. See above. C++ 1, Python 0. So in showing my clearly hyperbolic comment was technically incorrect (something I could have told you myself), you have merely shown that two languages I find vastly inferior to Python overall are actually better than it in this case. > Fortunately, Python isn't designed according to your ideas, and won't > change, so consider your posting a waste of time.

OK, if that's your response, that's sad. Of course, I try to learn new languages all the time. Python is still IMO the best. If the attitude in the community in response to feedback/criticism has gone from "maybe you've got a point" to "your a lunatic, we'll never change", well, only Python will suffer in the long term. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
