One amazing property of humans is our ability to re-shape ourselves in new environments; to literally learn new tricks. The handicap you identify here is only serving to diminish your potential. |

I've been paid for work in roughly 12 different programming languages over a 28+ year career, among them python (no braces at all, significant white-space), Rexx (keywords as braces), C, C++, Perl, Pascal, Bourne shell, Awk, C#, (braces braces and more braces), x86 assembler and several employer specific scripting tools.
Guess which ones are most comfortable? Certainly not python though it is the most bang for the buck of the languages I use and I'd rather eat hospital food for the rest of my life than write (or, deity forbid read) one more line of x86 assembler.
What was it we were talking about again?
