Consider: charmap = """ A BBB CCC DDDD etc... A A B B C C D D A A BBB C D D AAAAA B B C C D D A A BBB CCC DDDD """
Which lets you enter each letter the way you want it to look. No need to laboriously translate that by hand into tuples. Let the computer do that for you. So now the challenge is to write the Python program that does that translation for you. Also consider what happens when the small letters that form the large letters are not the same as the letter they form: SSSS P P AAAAA M M etc... S S P P A M M SSSS P A MMMMM S P A M M S P A M M -- Bob Gailer 510-978-4454 _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
