I just noted that the first Python loop can be eliminated:
Oops, I forgot to paste
import string
def chars(a, b):
return "".join(map(chr, range(a, b)))
_mapping = string.maketrans(chars(0, 10), chars(48, 58))
FTR string.maketrans is gone from Python 3.2+. Quoting from
http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.2.html#porting-to-python-3-2 "The
previously deprecated string.maketrans() function has been removed in
favor of the static methods bytes.maketrans() and bytearray.maketrans().
This change solves the confusion around which types were supported by
the string module. Now, str, bytes, and bytearray each have their own
maketrans and translate methods with intermediate translation tables of
the appropriate type."

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
