Hi,↵
↵
[Note: I am a Java developer who loves Python, okay? I just want to learn something like [this](https://codeforces.net/blog/entry/10124) for Java/Python to use them more in CP]↵
↵
I have a question buried deep in my head for all these years, but I don't think I can hold back anymore: Why would anyone use Python or Java in Codeforces?↵
↵
Not everyone knows C++? I doubt so. Most coders would know at least 2 or 3 programming languages and C/C++ is one of the very classic one usually taught in universities.↵
↵
More features? I doubt so. Except for big arithmetic problems, I doubt if there is any other feature in Java or Python for CP that C++ does not have. On the other hand, C++ does have more features than them such as speed, policy based data structures and direct memory access.↵
↵
Shorter code? I seriously doubt so. At least compare to Java, C++ is shorter. Compared to Python, unless you want to couple everything into one unreadable line, then C++ should not be very longer.↵
↵
I did try Python and Java for CP but only because I think Codeforces is a good place for me to learn those languages. What are your reasons?↵
↵
Thanks
