		tonymet 12 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: CPython Internals Explained c++ / g++ is not comparable because the original c++ reference compilers are not commercially popular today. No one is using Strouvestroups compilers. CPython is Python. Every time your buddy says “just download python” you are using CPython . There’s no reason to be pedantic.

g++ and clang are comparable. You need to specify the implementation.
