First of all your naming conventions suck. You've used the "interface"

i'm not going to even try, because i don't read ugly code! Try to
learn the Python style guide as soon as you can (In particular pay
attention to naming conventions):

Wow, such vitriol for such a simple bear to cope with !

Maybe Papa bear would like to try some humility !

This was my very first Python prog, and my first chess prog and my
attempt to learn somthing about Generators ! Do youtself a favour and
leave the Python comunity for the good of the language !

Chris, you might want to try another list:

https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor


The folks on this list are friendly, but tough. They are not generally arrogant,
but many of them are experts (or core python developers) and most of them are
worth listening to. The list mentioned above is for folks who are learning
python and who have basic questions or want basic clarifications.   (they are
gentler too)    :)

It's also worth noting that Rick Johnson is a well-known troll here and *not* representative of this group. He was deliberately insulting Chris, not being "tough" but helpful. He is not worth listening to. He is to be killfiled and ignored. Chris, I'm sorry you ran into him on your first introduction to this community.
