These are pretty good questions. I was thinking more along the lines
of a comparison sheet like is it compiled. Should answer things that
could help categorize the language, ie:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categorical_list_of_programming_languages>
For instance, Python is certainly not a Curly Bracket Language. It
(according to this page) Python can be considered a Metaprogramming
and not Multiparadigm language.
