"The First Python function ever written"
(takes place in the Garden of Eden"

Guido sayeth "I will write def foo():"
"Hmm, I could use an import, or two",
Satan said, in a whirl, "Why not write it in Perl?",
and the second function ever written -  def foo_you():

No pointers, no templates, no streams,
These are things found only in bad dreams,
Because Explicit is "with it", and static typing dismiss-ed

"The Best language has been".joined() at the seams!

At the prompt, when I type "import this", it
Invites me to be more excplicit:
But in five lines of verse
One's obliged to be terse,
So the limerick form is illicit!

A char, an integer and a float,
And a decimal which precision is fixed
Computerised altogether
Then shaked down with a mixer
Asserts a community whose goal must be attained!

A tuple, a dict, and a list,
And whitespace which mus'n't be missed.
Imported together,
And stirred with a feather,
Yields a language whose name must be hissed!
