It depends on how mutable you w

This particular bug was because ihigh is the maximum 32 bit integer

Thanks all for your advice. I'm not actually going to use the mutable
string right at the moment, but I thought I might in the future and I
was just curious if it existed. I suppose a list of characters is
close enough for most purposes.

However, it would be difficult to do that without changing

I wasn't previously aware of it, thanks for bringing it to my attention

Hi,
you could use a list of characters. It would not be diff

I just did a brief search on Python Packagi
Hi,
I have searched this list and found out that Python doesn't have a
mutable string class (it had an inefficient one, but this was removed
