Differences - Python & Java
- Python is dynamically typed; Java is statically typed
- Python has only unchecked exceptions; Java has both checked and unchecked
- Python uses whitespace for scoping
in my experience, almost every Java program (not machine generated) does
- Python has no seperate compilation step
- Python has multiple, functional inheritance; Java has multiple hierarchical inheritance but singular functional inheritance
- Python has richer built-in data structures (lists, dicts, tuples, everything is an object)
- No operator overloading in Java (personal annoyance)
