hi, and welcome to Python! yes, the "L" can mean "large," but
officially, it means "long". What version of Python are you using?
The reason why i ask is because long integers have been rolled into
the existing integer type and the "L" should no longer be showing up
as it is being phased out since the 2.2 release. They are completely
gone in 3.0.
