I'm intrigued that Python has some functional constructions in the language.

When your program is nothing but function definition and function 
application, syntax is meaningless.

It's kinda like scripting, say, Microsoft Word in either Visual Basic, 
Python, Haskell or whatever:  you're just calling functions provided by 
the host, barely using any syntax or intrinsic language feature anyway. 
  Any language will do just fine.
