I appreciate all the comments in this thread so far, but what I'm really looking for is what to call the style of programming where you have no direct branching via line numbers, statement names, and gotos. I'm finding that lacking these things that I've been familiar with in other languages is good, in that it forces you to really think through the best way to organize the logic.
It seems to me that this is such a big departure from traditional procedural styled programming there ought to be a name for it, other than structured programming, since you can code that way even with line numbers, etc. I'd also be interested in reading the Python history file. -- Frank L.
