Python and collective intelligence

Question

I am currently reading a large book called Tobi Segaran's Programming Collective Intelligence (which I highly recommend)

All code examples are written in Python, and since this year I have already learned one new language (from the end of VB.net to C #), I do not want to skip to another learning curve.

This leaves me with the problem of translating python examples in C #.

Question: how important is it to keep the code in python? Is there anything in python that I cannot do in a regular controlled statically typed language?

It depends on how well you know C # and what you lose by leaving it.

Python seems to relate to AI programming, which for many decades has been LISP. The famous Russell / Norwig book AI: The Modern Approach also provides many examples in Python .
