> (Alternatively, we could redefine squares in Python.  All other languages just have the regular squares;  Python has a super *extra* square 2!  That clearly makes squares in Python *better* than squares in other languages...)

Heh. I initially wasn't sure if I was just missing a super fancy feauture of Python, but I eventually concluded the 2 probably wasn't supposed to be there.

In the name of making Python better, since π and -1 have already been proposed as additional squares, I vote for including the constant e as well.

> Fixed, thanks for the report and the patch!

Great! Thanks.
