Interesting stuff Andrew. I do generally avoid string concantination for the reason listed in the Python Performance Tips but your analysis kinda puts that in question. Such a dense discussion for me just trying to find the enumerate() function :). I guess that is why the python list is so great. You guys always rip my code apart and correct my style. Even if it is just a stupid one off example.
