Python 3 sucks

Name: Anonymous 2009-01-12 14:10

The third version of FIOC ( Python3000 for you cheese lovers ) is kind of lame, even lamer than classic FIOC. Minor changes suck and bigger ones weren't necessary.

As someone who doesn't know Python, I have 3 questions:

1) Does Python's lambda's and functions (as well as other things like classes) allow you to lexically bind something over them so as to create a closure?
2) If 1 is true, can you interconnect lambdas/closures to form networks of closures, usually combined with TCO to effectively make all the connections into goto's. This is useful for many things, one of them being state machines.
3) If 2 is true, can you generate said lambdas and networks of closures at compile time or runtime, for example by using a form of macros, or some sort of pattern-based code generation
4) If 3 is true, can it be done in a mostly hygenic macro(if not in a full-fledged system, at least using real Python code and some sort of gensyms? or is it all limited to primitive string substituation instead, so no operating on real objects?)
