I've been raising the warning flags about that awful Fibonacci example for years! First it was in the tutorial, and then, they plastered it on the front page of Python.org like it were some sort of trophy... At this point i have concluded that it must be: (1) a sadistic noob hazing device, or (2) a straw-stuffed, anthropomorphic, crow-poop-riddled monster that sends the seasoned programmers off in the opposite direction. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
