In the Python world, the sentiment is exactly the opposite. I remember reading in "Programming Python" this common idiom:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# module mymod2.py
def cube(n):
return n ** 3
# when 'import'ed, __name__ is 'mymod2'
# when executed, __name__ is '__main__'
if __name__ == '__main__':
if cube(15) != 3375:
print "Error, cube(15) is not correct"
