What? Some of these assertions are so wrong I don't even know where to begin correcting them.

This is not even sort of how it works.
> the wonderful print statement, which could have coexisted peacefully with the print function
No, it couldn't have. It really couldn't have.
> pep8 recommends mixing camelCase and stupid_underscores
pep8 doesn't recommend camelCase anywhere.
> the if __name__ == '__main__': idiom is evil

> there doesn't seem to be a standard format for docstrings
there is.
> you can't use minus signs in identifiers
