You misunderstood me. In python, indentation is part
of the semantic. Presentation has nothing to do with
indentation, you can indent with tab (a language that
doesn't accept that is a broken one).

In python, indentation is part of the semantic
information used by the interpreter. In C++,
indentation is part of the semantic information used
by the coder.

Otherwise, why comment code? It does not carry any
semantic information that the compiler cares about...
