IMHO a few python goodies are missing there.
e.g. generator functions:
# generic fibonacci without upper bound:
def fib():
parent_rabbits, baby_rabbits = 1, 1
while True:
yield baby_rabbits
parent_rabbits, baby_rabbits = baby_rabbits, parent_rabbits +
baby_rabbits
# only calculate and print the first 100 fibonacci numbers:
from itertools import islice
for baby_rabbits in islice(fib(),100):
print 'This generation has %d rabbits' % baby_rabbits
