I find that with a REPL in hand, I tend to play with functions while letting my mind almost drop into the problem space.

So I do less up-front design, but wind-up with somewhat better code at the end.

The other weird effect is that I find that this helps me think better about coding in something like C as well. A little experimentation at the REPL helps me understand pieces of the solution better.
