I've heard a couple of strange things about Python, namely that it relies on indentation (instead of, say, brackets) and that it lacks a for loop.
Not having a for loop is no big deal, you can use a while loop and do your own initialization and testing.
for (i=0; i< 5; i++)
{
i=0;
while(i < 5)
{
i++;
It's not one of those PITA sort of things which are hard to work around, like, say, the lack of unsigned integers in Java.
