Alan didn't say to find a tutor, he suggested you read a tutorial. You seem to be having problems with very basic python concepts and his suggestion was to take an hour or two and *read* some gentle introductions that will lead you through concepts like tuples and lists. Without those basic understandings you're going to continue to struggle with simple tasks. We're here to help, but the approach you're taking isn't getting you where you need to go quickly. Here are a couple of starting points: http://docs.python.org/tut/ http://www.sthurlow.com/python/ http://www.diveintopython.org/toc/index.html http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Non-Programmer's_Tutorial_for_Python/Contents Glance through those and pick one that looks like you're style and speed. Skim though the sections you already understand and pay more attention to the bits you don't. A little time spent up front is going to save you immense time later. Let us know how it goes.
