Personally I like generators, generator expressions and list comprehensions much more than the Ruby equivalents (chaining each/filter/etc). Python is cleaner overall, and if you want metaprogramming you can still do a lot of it. Also Python has better libraries and runs on App Engine.


I'm too big fan of iterators, they're great!

Although it's worth noting that Ruby too, runs on GAE using JVM based implementation (JRuby).
