Using IronPython to learn the .NET framework, is this bad?
You can definitely do that to learn the class library, but I'm not sure if it's such a good idea when it comes to fundamental CLR concepts (e.g. delegates and events). You'll need to pay attention and distinguish what is strictly an IronPython feature, and what is CLR feature exposed in IronPython in a way that matches its dynamic semantics better.
Because I'm a Python fan, I'd like to learn the .NET framework using IronPython. Would I be missing out on something? Is this in some way not recommended?
EDIT:
I'm pretty knowledgeable of Java ( so learning/using a new language is not a problem for me ). If needed, will I be able to use everything I learned in IronPython ( excluding language featurs ) to write C# code?
