As someone who did Python professionally from a software engineering perspective, I've actually found Python to be pretty crappy really: unaware of _good_ idioms living outside tutorials and likely 90% of Python code out there that was simply hacked together quickly.

I have not tested, but I would expect more niche ecosystems like Rust or Haskell or Erlang to have better overall training set (developer who care about good engineering focus on them), and potentially produce the best output.

For C and C++, I'd expect similar situation with Python: while not as approachable, it is also being pushed on beginning software engineers, and the training data would naturally have plenty of bad code.

I think its pretty good at Elixir, so that tracks.
