Dear Group,
I have already worked out my solution but everyone of yours' answers
helped me to see different solutions from different angles. Thank you
for the same. I am building some social network program in Bengali. I
just gave the transliteration problem which was giving me problem, I
thought as you are very expert pythoners so it would be minutes'
matter. By your answers I saw I was not wrong. But as I solved the
problem so I checked it bit late. Sorry for the same.
Best Regards,
Subhabrata.
