#2Neat! I'd be interested in seeing pythonic solutions written in other languages (to the extent that those languages may allow 'Pythonic' style), too. I find it fascinating to see how certain languages will, for one reason or another, trend towards certain design patterns and styles.

Definitely a little unpythonic.

In the comments, someone gave this nice solution:
for x in range(100):
print x%3/2*'Fizz'+x%5/4*'Buzz' or x+1Re: Unpythonic Python

Actually, most Python I write (influence from reading experienced programmers) tends to the last one, although it's semi-jokingly:
def fizzbuzz(n):
return 'FizzBuzz' if n % 3 == 0 and n % 5 == 0 else None
def fizz(n):
return 'Fizz' if n % 3 == 0 else None
def buzz(n):
return 'Buzz' if n % 5 == 0 else None
def fizz_andor_maybenot_buzz(n):
print fizzbuzz(n) or fizz(n) or buzz(n) or str(n)
map(fizz_andor_maybenot_buzz, xrange(1, 101))

Something annoying about python is that the word "lambda" is so long for what are supposed to be one-off functions.
You have
f=lambda x,y=1,a='Fizz',b='Buzz': ...
def f(x,y=1,a='Fizz',b='Buzz'): ...
\x -> x

#9Reminds me of "Evolution of a Python Programmer" https://gist.github.com/fmeyer/289467 ... seems like I've perhaps seen other versions of this?

Something annoying about python is that the word "lambda" is so long for what are supposed to be one-off functions. You have f=lambda x,y=1,a='Fizz',b='Buzz': ... But it's actually shorter to say def f(x,y=1,a='Fizz',b='Buzz'): ... I much prefer Haskell's \x -> x Style lambdas.
> But it's actually shorter
It's not: with def() you have to explicitly write return, while with lambda it is implicit.
