That makes sense. I see two distinct thoughts in the function that I posted: "build the graph" and "search the graph". The blank line separates them. By my view, a function should represent a single, complete thought. Thus, the function should be broken up at the blank line. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
