Hi Everyone,
I hope not to offend you with too many question.. I've been lurking a
long time. I'm not keen on keeping e-mails or data stored in the
public space so this is my first post to the group.
That being said, I'm keen on refining my skills, I hope that I can
prove that I've move on beyond the: check the tut, read the faq..
Now as it's out of the way I hope that my questions can be sited as
examples for others breaking the procedural barrier.
I've seen examples using reduce, map and lamba that cause me to emit a
internal "WTFIZDISHI?"

improve it... hopefully it will help me with part two...
I'm sure anyone with 2 mins and solid skill of python can ballpark
this one...
