2008/11/26 fel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > how can I convince them that Python is better
You can't, because it isn't. I'd better explain that, before I'm lynched. The thing is, no language is better than another language. A language is better than another language *for a particular purpose*. SPARK Ada is better than Python for safety-critical software (if only because it's easier to get regulatory approval). INTERCAL is better than Python for obfustication. Before you try to convert them to Python, you need to find out all the reasons for the existing language choice and work out whether Python actually /would/ be better. If you can do that, in the process you will have gathered the evidence you need. If you can't do that, why are you assuming that Python will be better? -- Tim Rowe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
