If you have not dealt with an object-oriented scripting language before,
Very good piont. When I was activly looking into java , I had a lot of problems with the objects , classes ectt. I was used to delphi and using the ide and gui components , slapping them on the screen , then manipulating there properties in the ide and then editing any code needing finnalization or re working to get it to do what I wanted. With java your on your own from the get go. YOU need to create everthing from code whith code. Thats basicly why I havent rely persueded it , as well as the fact that its a verbose lower leval language in comparison to delphis pascal. Pthon is interesting in that it has a cleaner opp model than perl . I realy was stumped by perls typing as compared to pascal. It realy confused me , so much so that I realy did not persue it any further,I do like the idea of the python command prompt , makes for an easy way to play with short peices of code , seems like a simpler language to start with as compared to java , and it appears thet you can get productive with it very quickly compared with java. I suspect it runs quicker than java on the lower ens machines , and that its gui is not as sophisticatd as java as well. I havent gotten far enough in either to tell you if this is so. Another thing I realy liked was the forced indentation , realy makes for moore readable code. then I
*strongly* recommend you pick the one with a good object model to start with. It's enough to learn the basic concept, without having to learn several overlapping object models simultaneously and remember when each one applies.
If you already have dealt with several such languages, then it matters less - but it still matters, and the better object model will be easier to learn and to work with.
