I'm iterating through a list and I'd like to know when I'm at

Hi Peter,
As you already learned the csv module is the best tool to address your
problem.
Yup - it's almost going to make my little coding exercise trivial. :)
However, I'd like to show a generic way to get an extra item in a for-

What is your Python executable called? You refer to it as python on
the command line but your #! line in your script refers to the
executable as python3.1. tried it with just python in the #! Line?
