Yup...i can confirm that

Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
I was doing a job interview and the manager asked me why I choose python over other languages like R, like if I tough that python was the best language or what? I answered that python is not the best language for anything, for any job you want there's a better language, but python is the second best one for everything, so it offers a flexibility that no other language can. Like in my actuarial sciences MBA, all the professors use R, for 99% of they do I have an equivalent library in python, for the 1% that don't I can use rpy2 and run R code directly in python. Guess they liked my answer because I was approved and I'm about to start there in October.
"python is the second best language for everything..."
I love that summation! Python has been key for me to learn programming concepts. I hope to move into other languages in the future, but for now, Python does everything I need it to.
Yeah, that was the correct answer
