Which language is better?

There isn't, C is for big software e.g Adobe and python is for smaller like making folders. They both have different roles. C takes more space while python doesn't.

There are probably people on either side claiming their language is better than the other but an uneducated guess would be that it depends on what you want to accomplish.

I'll leave now before the pro's come and tell me I'm all wrong := )

Both languages are Turing complete which means you can theoretically build anything in either. They have very different purposes and that makes them hard to compare.

Python is focused on readability and simplicity on complex ideas just to name a few. C is focused on low level control and speed. Python will make use of a lot of C library's in the background and Pythons interpreter is written in C.

It is the difference between using a knife or a blender to make a smoothy. C is the knife and will get the job done exactly how you want it done but it will take lots of time on your part, this is clearly not the best way to make a smoothy. Python is the blender, it is easy to use, requires little effort and is fun to do. Obviously you should use the blender in this case.

BUT if you want to cut up chicken a blender will not work as well because you don't have that fine control over each blade. The knife will work great because you have that exact control.

TLDR: Pick the correct language for the job. Python if you need a high level (web site or software) language which is easy and fun to write. C if you need low level control or speed. You can do anything in either but that doesn't mean you should.

Goodluck! --Ricky
