Python vs JAVA vs PHP vs PERL vs Ruby vs JavaScript vs C++ vs TCL

Let’s take a look at key features of some programming languages.Currently, following six languages are being used for developing both desktop and web applications. 

  • Ruby
  • Java
  • C++
  • PHP
  • TCL
  • Perl
  • JavaScript

That is why, it is important for programmers to compare Python with JAVA, RUBY, PHP, TCL and Perl to pick the right language for their projects

Ruby

  • compare to Ruby, Python has a rich set of data structures, internal functions, better namespace handling and use of modules and iterators
  • Ruby does not support multiple inheritance while Python supports multiple inheritance
  • Python uses while space for handling scopes but Ruby uses “end” or “}.
  • RUBY is preferred for Web development and functional programming while Python for Academic and scientific programming.
  • Ruby work on “Do more with less.” Philosophy while PYTHON “One right way to do things”

JAVA

  • Python is more human readable than JAVA
  • Python has a high-level data types and its dynamic typing programs are shorter than Java programs

C++

  • Python is a dynamically typed language, while C++ is a statically typed language
  • Python has a large support for built-in functions as compared to C++

PHP

  • Python is more readable while PHP has more syntax from C/C++ and Perl
  • Python is easy to install as compared to PHP
  • Python is slow as compared to PHP
  • Debugging is easy in Python as compared to PHP
  • Python supports major GUI frameworks

TCL

PERL

  • Perl is application oriented while Python is object oriented.
  • Perl supports tasks like report generation, file scanning while Python focus on data structures and general programming language
  • Python is more readable than Perl

JavaScript

  • Python is server side. JavaScript is client side.
  • Python is extensively used in AI and machine learning while JavaScript lag in this property
  • Python uses indentation and whitespace. JavaScript uses curly brackets to designate blocks of code.
