It's fun switching from Python to Scala where for/yield comprehensions are idiomatic and very natural (nested comprehensions being a good example). Oh, and type safe and fast. It's especially powerful to build off those constructs with currying, partial application, pattern matching, etc...

I love Python and write code in it daily but as a (pseudo-)functional language it feels very awkward to me.
