One thing to remember is that Python is not Scheme/Lisp. It borrows some ideas from Scheme/Lisp,
I can say it stronger. Any resemblance between Python and Scheme or Lisp is purely a coincidence. Neither language is in Python's ancestry, at least not explicitly; I'd never used or tried to learn Scheme when I started Python (still haven't) and my Lisp experience was limited to copying Emacs startup code from friends (still is).
