OK. I will rewrite it in Java.

///
long t = currentTimeMillis();
tryCopyFile("in.txt","out.txt");
out.println( (currentTimeMillis() - t) / 1000);
///

You lost. The Java-version is shorter!
I didn't count import- and import static-statements
because Eclipse cares about imports automatically.


But maybe you want to have something more fun?
How about that?
    read autoexec.bat,
    sort the lines
    create sorted_autoexec.bak

///
File source = new File("c:/autoexec.bat");
File destination = new File("c:/sorted_autoexec.bak");

String[] lines = readLines(source);
lines = sort(lines);
write(destination,lines);
///

You lost.
You Pythonistas are a bunch of losers.
And your language is dog-slow.
Eeeeeek.

And try to write Eclipse with your Mickey-Mouse-language!
