Agree. When I tried to read the author's proposed alternative syntax, it just didn't read like English.


Python has a syntax of


for i in collection:
# something here


If we were to add 'foreach' as a keyword, what about 'in'? I double programmers would use the word 'in' as a variable. How about:


for ( Object c in collection) {
}
