You seem to have forgotten to CC the list. Let me help show the world your "mad skillz" -- at replying, at programming, at orthography, at interpersonal communication...
Sure you can ask all the questions you want...and the newsgroup can give all the answers it sees fit. In all likelihood, your professor wanted *you* to solve the problem, not have comp.lang.python solve the problem for you. You got at least two answers that "solve" the problem, but were designed to clearly indicated to the professor that you didn't author them yourself.
From my experience teaching students to program, that's the sort of problem that 4th or 5th graders (who have been paying attention in class) should be able to do with no need to ask for help.
Given that you made *no* effort (your post had *zero* code to show you had even attempted the problem), you got back far more than you put in.
