Personally I wouldn’t abuse a language like that. If you want to write Python, write Python. Don’t pretend some other language is Python, because it isn’t. The braces need to be in the “correct” place, i.e. { at the end of a line or on a line on its own, and } on its own line, with both braces indented correctly for the code they contain. Braces are important visual and logical indicators in C-like languages and are critical in understanding the flow of the code.
That said, if this is some silly little noddy program that only you will ever see then you can write it however you want. Don’t expect to be taken seriously as a competent dev though if this is going to be part of your public profile.
copy into a word document. select all the {}; and set their colour to white. ur welcome
I was looking at it like “whats wrong, this looks nice!” Then i looked to the right…
what are some good resources for learning rust by the way?
is documentation good/up to date?
Yeah the rust book is fantastic, you can learn directly from that.
I like learnxinyminutes.com for quick reference.
Why aren’t “alternate syntaxes” a thing? You can pretty easily just write code to convert between C-like and Python-like syntax. Why aren’t there IDE extensions that let you write in python syntax and automatically commit the standard syntax.
Transpilers are actually pretty popular in js land, Typescript is a good example. You can even transpile a really different syntax if you wanted to. For example, I use squint which lets me write Clojure syntax and produces js as output.
Why does even a modern language syntax insist on having end of line characters like semi colons. Surely we have moved beyond that. What is even the point of those characters?
It’s too hard to tell whether people in this thread are trolling.
