Closest language to Python's syntax that is more low level language!

Question

I guess topic says it all! But, I really wan't a syntax similar to Python's! And low-level... like C++ for example. I guess Java and C# is OK too, but I really have a huge problem with the { }, and always ; <-- and each line. I hate it so much...

Answer 1

cython may be pretty close to what you want: syntax just about identical to Python, and you can basically write C-level code in it. It's tuned to generate Python-usable extensions, but you could then "freeze" them into a stand-alone executable.

boo is another language with very Python-like syntax, and semantics to about the level of C# (also .NET oriented, but there's a JVM-oriented version in the works, I hear).
