Yes! Actually adding something like the following would be an improvement....

if (answer == []) and not_sure_there_are_no_solutions:
        print question
else:
        print answer

I heard Emmanuel's warning that the not_sure_there_are_no_solutions boolean may be hard to calculate in some cases.

In my opinion, not_sure_there_are_no_solutions should default to True unless it is a case where
we can with certaintly set not_sure_there_are_no_solutions = False.



    Other opinions? If everybody agrees, I will open a ticket.


Please do!  Thanks!

In general people don't like double negatives :)  How about
"solution(s) not found"
