Also notice that I changed the function naming style from mixedCase to

I love how that section of PEP 8 begins with: "The naming conventions of
Python's library are a bit of a mess, so we'll never get this completely
consistent -- nevertheless, here are the currently recommended naming
standards."
My code is certainly in "a bit of a mess" as I'm still learning Python.
Following the "Core Python Programming" book for the most part, and
writing scripts to solve the problems that I'm having. I got an
associate degree in computer programming but never mastered a
programming language outside of web development. I'll need to unlearn
all the bad habits I picked up with PHP over the years.
