OK. But there are lessons attached - something to the effect of "exploring freedoms". Which is what I think makes Python a pithy environment in which to learn about programming. And part of what connects programming, in general, to - for me - the development of mindfulness. Perhaps stated in my usual inappropriately pithy manner.
