Hi Brian, No problem. Just be more careful next time. In particular, look at the context. The homework question I'm posing to Sunil is fairly basic, intentionally so, but is designed so that if he solves it with basic, standard tools (fresh list construction, list iteration, list appending), he should be able to transfer that solution almost directly to his original question, because it's essentially the same problem in a different guise.
On the other hand, your one-liner solution uses zip and list comprehensions. It's clever, but too clever: not only is it using advanced tools that he shouldn't touch yet, but that approach will not easily generalize to his original question without contortions. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
