The contest ranks in speed order, and there is no way Python can compete with truly-compiled languages on such low-level code. I'd bet money that the algorithm I used (coded in C) can run with the winners. I also think I'd wager that the Python version outright trumps them on code size. My first version bombed for the zero-length sequence. That was a mistake, sorry, but it may not be one of their test-cases. I wonder how many of the accepted entries would perform properly. -- --Bryan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
