numpy, probably?

In other words it's not popular, not even widely known.

Compare:

$ python3.4 -c '__pete...@web.de'
  File "<string>", line 1
    __pete...@web.de
             ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
$ python3.5 -c '__pete...@web.de'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name '__peter__' is not defined

Starting with 3.5 my email address is valid Python syntax. Now I'm waiting 
for the __peter__ builtin ;)
