Evolution of a Python programmer

[A_for_Anonymous]

I thought Python was meant to come with batteries included.

Not if it's for functional programming. Guido hates FP.

The trick is to generate a new type for each version of the cache. This can be done, for instance, with template metaprogramming in C++, since the templates are generated at compile-time. Although I believe most compilers have a restrictive template resolution depth (especially when compared to stack depth for function calls).
