title: pyopengl: Could it replace c++?
body: <p>I'm starting a computer graphics course, and I have to choose a language.</p>
  
  <p>Choices are between C++ and Python. I have no problem with C++, python is a work in progress. So i was thinking to go down the python road, using pyopengl for graphics part.</p>
  
  <p>I have heard though, that performance is an issue.</p>
  
  <p>Is python / pyopengl mature enough to challenge C++ on performance?</p>
  
  <p>I realize its a long shot, but I'd like to hear your thoughts, experiences on uses of pyopengl.</p>
