That's just his opinion, man.

ust a collection of useful names for built-in types
that otherwise don't exist in the default namespace. E.g. functions are
objects, and have a type, but that type is not available by default:
py> FunctionType
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
NameError: name 'FunctionType' is not defined
You need to import it first:
py> from types import FunctionType
py> FunctionType

by default.
Libraries should not call sys.exit, or raise SystemExit. Whether to quit
or not is not the library's decision to make, that decision belongs to
the application layer. Yes, the application could always catch
SystemExit, but it shouldn't have to.

ngled beyond recognition due to the way you create it using the
implicit encoding from chars to bytes. Change the line
text = 'MeCab ...'
to use an explicit Unicode string and encode, as above, and maybe the
error will go away.

Huh?
You have "global" for global names. Python require declarations for local
names, but if it did it would probably use "local". What name would you
pick to declare names nonlocal other than "nonlocal"?

ne that some of them differ from C in
semantics as well as syntax. So by emphasising the differences ("Python
has no variables? It has name bindings?") we increase the likelihood that
he'll learn the differences in semantics as well as syntax.
So, in a very practical sense, &qu
could ever hope
(or perhaps fear) to see.
If you insist in thinking of Python as "Perl with different syntax", then
you won't understand why you can't do certain things -- and you'll
equally not realise that you CAN do other things that other languages
don't support.

Oops, I meant *doesn't* require declarations. Sorry for the error.
