Whoa, I tried to write some Python code today (trying that nice Google App Engine, of course.)
Guess what... After three typed lines I managed to hit the first wall of laughability. My code does not compile (oh you may want to say "parse", I don't care) and that was because...
because some "unexpected indentation".
Indeed... there were blank lines at the end of the file, and those blank lines were actually not blank, but full of spaces. How do you distinguish an empty line from a line with only spaces? The funny thing is ... you don't :-)
The sad thing is that some people still believe that Python is a valid programming language :-(
