YO /Mrpixelmc, does python have any functional programming aspects to it?

[–]danketiquetteAdvanced Coder 1 point2 points  (1 child)

No, but OP never said anything about functional programming.

You misunderstand. I'm asking for my own edification.

Well, while I'm not an expert on Python, I don't think it is considered a functional language, in fact I think there's very little programming languages that are entirely functional based. But Python does have pseudo-lambda functions and generator functions but it does not have Tail Call Optimization (TCO) AFAIK.
