So in conclusion to what i am saying :
PHP is ugly because its trying to do what it was not designed for and
doing that to "survive".
But PHP in web dev is undeniably simple and nice and it should be kept
that way.
Hence my first posting....PHP vs Python ? Are you kidding me!

C/C++ is not ugly. They have a learning curve and no way should it be
associated with PHP.
C/C++ is the mother of all the popular languages you know today and
what did you think PHP, python interpreter, linux, windows, OSX is
written in?
The badminton racket is not a correct analogy for one reason, both
the wood racket and the iron racket is designed to do only
one thing. Languages on the other hand are different. C/C++/Java/C#
these languages are used to be general and able to grow far and wide
due to
the language design. PHP is conceived with the intention of doing web
pages apps and it can never grow out of that main design without being
ugly just
like how Basic was designed to be a learning language.
SQL is also arguable a programming language but designed for database,
if you want to do SQL capabilities with C/C++/Java/Python/PHP u can
see how different and it is (LINQ ?). Or try adding in SQL
capabilities to do socket programming and Web apps and you can see how
ugly it can get.
Back to the badminton, the correct analogy would be : You use the
correct racket in the badminton court. Pass LCW a ping pong bat and i
can tell you
i have good chances to trouce him.

Its all depend on the programmer. If he or she good and know what he or she want
any programming language suitable for him or her.
Programming is an art.

I think if someone saying PHP is ugly is like saying C and C++ is also ugly.
If they all ugly siblings and C is no 1, C++ no 3 and PHP no 4 this month on

i dont mind being ugly:p. (luckily I'm quite handsome. Hahah). Anyway this
argument is quite useless. It's like badminton , if I'm using 500 rm racket
and LCW using rm 50 racket and we play single , everybody will know the
result;). It's not the language, but the programmer to make the apps an
art.
