enumerate improvement proposal

I think that it would be handy for enumerate to behave as such: def enumerate(itrbl, start=0, step=1): i = start for it in itrbl: yield (i, it) i += step This allows much more flexibility than in the current enumerate, tightens up code in many cases, and seems that it would break

Event driven server that wastes CPU when threaded doesn't

I'm attempting to create a lobby & game server for a multiplayer game, and have hit a problem early on with the server design. I am stuck between using a threaded server, and using an event driven server. I've been told time and time again that I should use an event driven server design (that is, u
