To add to Aahz's response, there are some corners of Python
I learned once and decided shouldn't be in production code
because it would be too hard to maintain. 'reduce' is one of
them. Another might be multiple 'for' clauses in a comprehension
a = [x*y for x in range(10) for y in range(10)]
because it's used so rarely that someone looking at it
wouldn't know which of the 3 likely values is actually created.
Is it:
a == [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]
a == [[0, 0, 0, ...], [0, 1, 2, 3, ...], [0, 2, 4, 6, ...], ...]
or
a == [0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,2,4,6,8,...]
I had to test to figure out which was the correct answer.
There are a few others like 'execfile' and 'compile' that
I don't have reason to use in my production code. I knew them
once but have forgotten how to use in "utter fluency".
