I was exercising some grammatical constructs we'd been over, trying to dense-pack them into a "game" with a plot (guess a secret word). Context manager, decorator, subclassed exceptions, function generator... all working together but not in a very realistic way. Code designed to show off constructs working together has a somewhat artificial flavor. There'd be way more straightforward ways to create that user experience, most definitely! I need to make sure my students realize this when we do Session 9 on Monday. And now for something completely different: http://insights.cermacademy.com/2016/03/131/ Comments welcome. Kirby
