I had some random idea yesterday to take a look into Python. It's quite cool, and I really like it. It is my first OOP language. I would recommend it to anyone :). If interested maybe start here:

An excellent language, combining many of the best qualities of Scheme and Smalltalk, but with a more conventional syntax. Very nice, clean and powerful, an excellent scripting language for programmers of all levels of expertise.

Isn't this the language which requires proper indentation to know what is within an 'if' block and what is out of it ?

Yes, but I don't see why some people have a problem with this. The way you need to indent in Python is logical. Personaly I would have indented my code the same if the whitespace didn't matter. :)
