How so? Or do you mean that about list, dict and set comprehensions?

Yes - just my preference. `[ num for num in numbers ]` in Python would read as `[ for num in numbers do num ]`. With nested loops, and if you want to do filtering (yield only on certain conditions) I felt the F# syntax reads better as the order reads top to bottom.
