Many articles state JavaScript is possibly going to follow Python as it grows. Both languages are easy to read and code. Both languages have a rich feature set. Backward compatibility of JavaScript has been very solid as Python has. Both languages are powerful enough to handle today's scripting. Although I have trouble comparing the two since on is server side and one is client side or at least I never saw Python used in HTML source readable by the client. |

There are many critics to the recent phenomenon known as grade inflation. The definition is that grade patterns change so that the overwhelming majority of students receive higher grades for the same quantity and quality of work done by students in the past. There are many possible causes for this, and most critics agree the rise has been traced back to the time of the Vietnam War. There was an overwhelming sympathy for the many men being called on by their country to go to war. This led to grades being raised in order to keep men home, in universities, rather than being sent overseas. |
