Python as language of development

Yes, I choose Python as the main language of development, instead of PHP. Ruby doesn't count in Nigeria (at least mow).

In summary, Why?
  • A general purpose language
  • Clean and elegant syntax
  • Has extensive libraries
  • Extensive documentation
  • Mature run-time environment
  • Syntax makes heavy use of whitespace, unlike C/C++, PHP, etc. which use { } to enclose blocks of code.
  • Support for standard technologies

Python is far more powerful than PHP in many aspect. PHP maybe easier for  the most programmers, but it encourages bad programming habits, with affect the project in the long run.

PHP also have more programmers available, but i dont intend to recruit from current pool, but will create and develop from schools. As a matter of fact, CcHub encourages and teaches python more than any other language!
And by the way, I am in very good company.
