Even for the unobscure and unclever solutions (like the one Sir Real offered), i doubt the cheaters could explain them to any level of expertise that would be acceptable to a wise instructor. @OP: If after submitting your copy/paste solution the instructor calls you over for a chat, it's okay to be nervous, because typically this means you're about to be outed and made a complete fool of in front of the whole class. Yep, teachers are sadistic like that. Have a nice day! -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
