Much of Python's influence is actually from Modula-3, not C++. The only reason C++ is similar is because C++ also borrowed liberally from Modula-3. In particular, Python's import, exception handling, and object systems are based on Modula-3's (though IIRC it did also borrow some C++ innovations for the object system). (Modula-3 is the Velvet Underground of programming languages: your average programmer/listener has never heard of it, but it influenced so many languages/musicians you have heard of) |
