I should say that I don't like thematic_tutorials/functional_programming.rst: I think we should be suggesting that people use list comprehensions and for loops instead of map and reduce. That certainly seems to be the direction Python is going, especially since reduce is no longer a built in function in Python 3. But I didn't want to rewrite that document right now. Should I open up another ticket for that rewrite?

Yes, a rewrite should be a second ticket. Python3 still supports a number of functional programming operations/paradigms, but all are returning views (AFAIK). We probably want someone who does functional programming (e.g., a lisp programmer) to do the bulk of the rewrite.
