I don't know who you are responding to, or what they said to give you the impression that they believe that all differences between languages is *merely* syntactic sugar, but I certainly don't believe that. In fact, given that you haven't quoted anyone, I'm tempted to call it a straw-man, except you don't appear to be arguing against anyone, so there is nobody it could be a straw-man of :-) -- Steven -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
