Seun: I'm glad that you're loving Python and other real programming languages.

Ymodulus: I meant no offense.

I am a php Developer; though i don't comment or visit the programming or webmaster board regularly bcuz i was angry at seun discrimination towards php developers/coders.

lordZOUGA: depth search over breadth first. recursion over iteration. quick sort over merge sort.

Javanian:

why recursion over iteration?

Javanian: I think we should stop this stereotyping and discrimination as they are very useless. Nairaland, the most visited site in Africa, with over 3 million unique visitors monthly was built with python, but to 98% of those users Python is just a Snake, a reptile, a very large snake!! They don't care which language NL was built with...If assembly language is your comfort zone and would get the job done, use it! if its PHP, use it! what ever it is, use it! What matters here is the end users every other thing is secondary, Real Programmers Ship! i would prefer if we have arguments like Quick sort vs Merge sort, iterators vs recursion, Breadth first search vs Depth Search, this would make more sense


Enough said! whew!

Javanian: @op like seriously? you hated Seun because he didn't like PHP?? LMAO

I think the issue here is that this language called PHP is breeding alot of quacks in this field thanks to joomla, wordpress and what have you. The language may have its own flaws but there is no perfect language. I for a person if i meet you and you tell me PHP is the only language you code in i would always look down at you. I know its a wrong thing to do but sometimes i just cant help it. My views however have changed as i have come to discover that these languages are just tools, and has nothing to with the developer in person. I respect pc guru a lot for his flair in what? Javascript!! I have seen this guy do a lot of really wonderful things with it.


It is a very good thing that you have tried out Python and Ruby and you have seen things for yourself. About a year ago, after much procrastination, i decided to leave Standalone/Console application dev and do some web development i learnt Servlets, Jsp and Scala. Scala seemed the way to go but i haven't had enough time to gain expertise in it, I hate Jsp! for no just cause maybe its because the syntax is like that of PHP and i got emotional about it so i later opted in for Servlets. Although, i later decided to abandon web development because the field is tooooo crowded, just tooo crowded, so i decided to abandon it and go for mobile app dev and all of a sudden the field is also getting crowded! So i decided to opt in for Game Development, i am not one yet but i hope to be one someday...


After the Java vs C++ argument here, i pondered alot about the issue, i seriously wondered why i would pick C++ over Java if they can be used to achieve the same thing and Java would almost certainly do it in less time. After much pondering i decided to have a conversation with some guys that had C++ as their default language, this included two reds on TopCoder, 90% of them also knew Java and admitted the reason they choose C++ over Java on most occasions is that they were taught/learnt C++ first! They spent alot of time learning it Hence it is very difficult to leave their comfort zone...

Enough said! whew!

megaplaza: Recursion over Iteration? It depends on the use case. Write a recursive factorial function that calculates factorial of say 1billion or 500million and lets see if you wont have stack overflow error. Recursion is not memory friendly and once you have a problem that involves recursive calls that runs into thousands you are bound to have a problem.

paddy4destiny: Welcome #TeamPython
left php for python, no regrets whatsoever
