I can say it stronger. Any resemblance between Python and Scheme or Lisp is purely a coincidence. Neither language is in Python's ancestry, at least not explicitly; I'd never used or tried to learn Scheme when I started Python (still haven't) and my Lisp experience was limited to copying Emacs startup code from friends (still is). -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
