No, No. It's for *Perl* that the motto is:
"There is more than one way to do it".
For Python, there are 19 mottos, and one of them is:
"There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it."
unfortunately, the next motto is:
"Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch."
The diversity in replies is basically a failure. Either in Python or
in us. ;) To learn more, open a python interpreter and type:
>>> import this
