Question

I read this post last night and it got me thinking. I like python and “batteries”, pypi and such. But I’ve only done python solo. Never tried it in a team.

Are the points that Ted mentions valid? If they are how do teams cope with them? Does Python work in teams or even large teams? Or it kills productivity?

I personally see the problems he mentions when I come back to my old code. Even when working with other modules sometimes I need to peek inside. I would like to hear people with experience on this.

Answer 1

Python works fine in teams. Whether a language works in large teams is largely a factor of how well the team works together, and has little to do with the language.
