can you really call python programming though? The reason why python is so quick to write is because its so-called libraries are pre-compiled C programs. so you're not writing new programs, you're scripting existing ones.

The same is true for JVM bytecode, and C operations really are just aliases for ASM operations, and ASM (sometimes) is just aliases for microcode operations
