Intent is to print "Jack, Kack, ...." with "O" and "Q" delivering a longer
suffix. Instead, I get the printout shown with duplicates and a second
deviation with "O" and "Q" as shown.
Why? IDLE and Shell are Python 2.5.4 running on Windows 8.1.
prefixes = 'JKLMNOPQ' ###FAILS WITH REPEATS
suffix = 'ack'
suffixb= 'uack'
for letter in prefixes:
if letter == "O":
print letter + suffixb
if letter == "Q":
print letter + suffixb
else:
print letter + suffix
>>>
Jack

Kack
Kack
Lack

Ouack
Oack

Pack

Quack

Thanks, Ken Hammer
