Why I'm still using Python
One of <i>the</i> single language features that makes me stay with python is list comprehensions. So maybe something like that:<p><pre><code>    stuff = [cleanup(s) for s in stuff if s.unprocessed]
</code></pre>
This, the way you can handle&#x2F;manipulate strings and the powerful included libraries make python a good language.<p>Downsides?
