OK, lets be serious about high-level programming lnguages. Python is a dynamical typed ( name binding mechnism implicitly), imperative language with the built in auto GC and the heap plus stack managements in the bundled scriptor. A tuple is treated immutable and a list is mutable in Python. I suggest one can read the introductions about Erlang which is a non-imperative high level language in the 5 to 6 th gen programming languages in back-end server applictions for the robustness and maintainence costs. Neverthless, Python is regarded as a programming firendly language when comparing with other high level languages. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
