[BangPypers] Regarding 2 XML Files Comparision using Python

[Srijayanth Sridhar]

Hello,

My name is Jayanth. I am new to BangPypers and Python in general. I have
been working on Ruby however so I am not lost or anything.

I wanted to point out that on ruby-lang several posters from India seem to
have no concept of how to phrase questions. They also lack the basic
curiosity to try common things before they go asking around for answers.
I've pondered for a long time why this phenomenon is particularly large here
whereas nearly everywhere else, even in countries where English is a
non-native language, people actually stick to basic etiquette.

Either the proportion of posters who ask for answers outright is really high
from India, or I am just being overly critical. What do you feel are some of
the reasons for this?

Thank you,

Jayanth
