title: Why so many "reserved built-in symbol"-s in python
body: <p>I am learning Python. Up to now, <code>filter</code>, <code>id</code> and other words generate warnings <code>Warning: assignment to reserved built-in symbol</code>. Well, I am designing <strong>filters</strong> and assigning <strong>id</strong>-s to each, and this warning is forcing me to use underscores all over the place.</p>
  
  <p>C's reserved keywords are either shortened words e.g. <code>int</code> or not very often used English words e.g. <code>volatile</code>. How do I cope with the extreme readability of the Python programming language, that is forcing me to make my own programs unreadable?</p>
