No rational arithmetic yet
Line 1:
Python is described in "it transparently supports bignum
arithmetic". "bignum" is defined as encompasing both arbitrarily
large integers and rational numbers. Python does not yet provide
for rational number arithmetic.
 
I don't believe Python supports [[:Functional programming|Functional programming]], as in [[:Prolog|Prolog]] or somesuch. It supports function-based programming... meaning that your program is just composed of functions not organized into classes and objects. I have gotten the two confused in the past, and I suspect that this is what happened here.
