		dagmx on May 21, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Writing Python like it's Rust How are any of these points exclusive to Python among the commonly used languages? Everything you said applies equally to many C++ projects I work with as well

You are right, this is probably not specific to Python. It just happens that:

1. we're currently discussing Python;

2. anecdotally, the C++ projects on which I have worked were all case 1. ("code it like it's Rust") – I make no claim that this is representative, though.
