I am an engineer of java and c#, I want to some personal projects in free time,
and I choose python.
After try python, I hava some suggestion.
The first thing is that python’s class is not well designed than other
programming languages.
Using dictionary as data model is the 20th century style, but now is 21t
century.We usually use strong typed class to express a data model.
For example, the code presentation of a person in Java/c++/c# may be:
public class Person {
public String name;
public String email;
public int age;
}
The corresponding Python code:
class Person:
def __init__(self):
self.name = None
self.email = None
self.gage = None
It is very strange to define instance members of a class in constructor.Even
the OOP feature of PHP is very like Java. Python's dynamic feature has lost
control.
Second, python is too complex.
Python is an old programming language.At that time, enterprise programming
style is very popular, witch like making simple things become complex, so force
the costumer to pay more money.But now is WWW and Internet and Linux time,
people like simple production and simple programming styles. Every new
programming language wants to keep simple.
Third, python is too slow.
At the old enterprise programming time, performance is not a critical feature.
If software runs too slow, customer have to pay more money to enterprise
software company to buy new hardware.
Time changed, performance is very important now. Because the complex of python,
the pypy project process very slow, and not widely used by people.
Totally speaking, simple and performance are mostly required by this times. I
suggest the python team should stop any new work, and start to rebuild a new
python with simple grammar and better performance.
