But those functions are objects too. :)

Anyway, there's no problem with doing object oriented programming in Python,
and it's in fact more fun and easier than doing the same in Java and C++,
by many reports (I can testify personally for the comparison with C++).

And as said by the previous poster, Python works fine with a procedural or
mixed style of programming as well.
