I guess you shouldn't care, because to you, functional programming is an end in itself, XKCD 1270 style. You could alternatively show an example, if there are any, but if you'd rather just live the functional life, who am I to stop you? Go ahead. Write LISP code that runs in the Python interpreter, and then bemoan the stack limit. Meanwhile, I'll write Python code. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
