Whic is how many people?  How are you counting the people who try Python,
become frustrated, give up, and go elsewhere to satisfy their programming

...as was well answered by Diagoras to him that showed him in Neptune's
temple the great number of pictures of such as had escaped shipwreck, and
had paid their vows to Neptune, saying, 'Advise now, you that think it
folly to invocate Neptune in tempest.' 'Yea, but,' saith Diagoras, 'Where
are they painted that prayed but drowned?'
