This is why I’m developing CANDO.
It doesn’t have any of these problems that led me to give up on Python a decade ago.
CANDO generates compiled code, does automatic memory management when you want it,
interoperates with C++ and C and has a full featured chemistry library built into it.
Python was a trap for scientific computing.
