I would swap Python with C++. Constantly dealing with stupid runtime errors that could’ve been easily captured during compile time.

Did you forget to rename this one use of the variable at the end of the program? Sucks for you, because I won’t tell you about it until after 30 minutes into the execution.

Yeesh. I mean, perl would tell you about that immediately, I'm just saying... :-P

Yeah, but then you have to use perl

Using perl is not the problem, now trying to read perl code later? That's the challenge! :-P
