efficiently in pure Python.
For instance, SML provides a tabulation tool: ``tabulate(f)`` which produces a
-sequence ``f(0), f(1), ...``. This toolbox provides :func:`imap` and
-:func:`count` which can be combined to form ``imap(f, count())`` to produce an
-equivalent result.
+sequence ``f(0), f(1), ...``. The same effect can be achieved in Python
+by combining :func:`imap` and :func:`count` to form ``imap(f, count())``.
These tools and their built-in counterparts also work well with the high-speed
functions in the :mod:`operator` module. For example, the multiplication
