Not so. How it's used in Python terminology is fairly closely aligned with how the word was used in my programming language theory class at uni, where it was defined in mathematical terms and lambda calculus rather than in terms of computer memory. This is one area that Python really appealed to me. Many of its concepts are more closely aligned with the theories and calculus we studied in tour theory class. I suppose this is also why Lisp (we used Scheme in our class) is so appealing to some. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
