I think a Pythoneer will twistedly think at this point is: why do you say "can't use" we can can just *redefine* __add__, __sub__, other __ribs__, to suit, get whatever meanings for those typical arithmetic operators you like. > And in the act of defining them, we naturally have to think recursively, as we > haven't been given any looping constructs. But in Python, we have been, given looping constructs (it's a VHLL ya know, not an assembly language like Scheme and/or MMIX).
