 In a way. It is easy to hack a script like Perl. And it has a simple and strong
data structure like Lisp. The syntax is Pascal like. Functions and threads are
values just like numbers. Meta-programming is easy. Types are dynamic.
 But it is small and clean. It is also extensible and an extension language. It
is multi paradigm. And I have more or less abandoned Python in favour of Lua.
(I'm still observing the interesting Prothon project)
