I'm just pondering here... (and pinky, i'm looking at you!), but there "may" be a good excuse for "import array". I have a feeling it's merely an artifact. Maybe the OP began his script with a Python array, then realizing he needed a mixed- type container, began using list and forgot to edit his imports. So yes: superfluous, yet forgivable. *HOWEVER* I cannot forgive someone for creating a function that merely prints a global variable! WTH??? @OP: Why did you create the "output" function? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
