Python v COBOL
#15

Python is a language which sacrifices time complexity to allow for rapid prototyping and hence increases productivity greatly but at the cost of execution speed. No matter how technology advances you will always have the problem of productivity vs performance, a language will usually be good at either of the two or decent at both.
Thank You.
but these days, prototyping and development time are cost critical. and, i don't see that reversing for common business use cases anytime soon. it may still be the case for machine learning, but they don't use COBOL for that.

i still hope to see businesses adopt Python to replace COBOL. maybe we can make a special version of Python just for them, to make it easier for them to code and read: PYTHON IN ALL UPPER CASE.

i'm going to need to beat up on github to find out why i can't download from their site.

What do you call someone who speaks three languages? Trilingual. Two languages? Bilingual. One language? American.
