Python doesn’t have built in support for efficient manipulation of immutable structures as far as I know. That’s one large knock against it, as immutability can be considered a strong aspect of FP. It also doesn’t support tail-call optimization, which can be a problem when dealing with recursive solutions.
Why Python is not functional programming?
