Python
I was mucking around, trying to code a prime sieve in one line. I don't know
about filters and bit shifting and stuff like that but I thought I could do it
with builtins, albeit a very long one line. This is the part of my stupid trick
in question that got me wondering about a key parameter for
All you need is the iterator version of map(). In Python 3, that's the
normal map(); in Python 2, use this:
from itertools import imap
all(imap(lambda x: bool(x), xrange(10**9)))
False
It's roughly instant, like you would expect.

input() is a function which returns a string. You can assign this return value
to a variable. That's what variables are for.
option = input()
Now you can use the variable named option in place of all those calls to
input().
i.e:
...instead of..
if input() == 'parry':
# etc
...do

Yes, apparently Basic uses one-based indexing too.
As for Ada, apparently, the programmer needs to explicitly define the
