Well in Java code for one. No wonder they require auto-completion. Java class-based namespaces must be a nightmare to work with. That and all the over-use of design patterns that Java libraries love to do, though in fairness Java requires a certain amount of boilerplate to do things like singletons and factories, whereas Python can often just use a module. Also in C and C++ the static type declarations do sometimes make things look a lot more noisy. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
