I suppose that's true: it's not *just* a scripting language. Neither
is Perl for that matter.

In one way, I don't mind getting "correct" answers, but in another
way, with my RAD hat on, I'd prefer not to have to worry too much
about rounding errors and such. I don't know how Perl and Python 1.5.2
manage their trickery, but I suppose it could raise its ugly head and
bite you one day. :-)
