Alpha: God damned crazy language! I can't tell what type anything is!
Gamma: Well it's no good shouting about it. It's a perfectly well-typed
expression.
Beta: Let it go kid, it's not wise to upset a Python programmer.
Gamma: But sir, nobody complains that Python is dynamically typed.
Beta: That's because in Python people don't write functions that take a
list of functions, compose them into a single function, return a
high-order function that takes a function and applies it to the result
of the first function, apply 0 to that, execute the resulting function
on an empty list and finally return an Integer. Haskell programmers have
been known to do that.
Gamma: ...I quite see your point, sir.
