I have never been a huge fan of Python (Lisp person) but I really appreciate how concise Python can be, and the dynamic nature of Python allows the nice query syntax.

- mark_l_watson 2y agoWell, Peter has moved on to Python. I had lunch with him in 2001, expecting to talk about Common Lisp, but he already seemed more interested in Python. It has been a while since I studied his Lisp code, but I watch for new Python studies he releases.
- pama 2y agoAgreed on conciseness of the implementation. It is short and clear despite having a Max and Min that share all except one character in 30 lines of code.
