This statement is interesting. Part of what makes the Python implementation so 
expressive is precisely the use of functional constructs like list 
comprehensions, ranges, and all the awesome stuff in itertools. A purely 
imperative implementation would probably be as clunky as the purely functional 
ones, but for different reasons.
