Meh..
Rust comes close for c++ but still ****
Golang is definitely a "better" C.
 
C++ sucks, Python makes C++ much better. Sorry, I'm a bit grumpy for not always getting things my way.
 
Python sucks, C# is better. :p
No way. Python just comes naturally to me. Feels like how programming should be. And it can use C++ and probably many other languages. Android and C# (++) are unnecessarily over-complicated.

I think you have no clue what you're talking about when I read that last sentence.

Have you looked at the top level statements that were introduced? Or are you saying curly bracers are too complex (when they actually make it easier to read)?

The main reason to use python is that e.g. Matlab and those libraries have amazing support, outside of that, python is meh, there are better languages out there (and yes, C# isn't the best language, just good for what I use it for, and top level statements have made it useful for scripting, though I'd probably go powershell 7+ if pure scripting).
