Hey Billy. That may not be the important part of the code, but the many people
giving up their free time to read it and help you don't know that. It's
probably most helpful to give them a working example so as not to waste their
time. Just sayin for future, is all. :-)

int(float(s)) will corrupt integers larger than 2**53, should you ever

Think that you can call you class as you want.
If you use CamelCase notation than you are pro programmer?
These are just conventions for better code reading and understanding,

it's useless discuss in that thread about that stuff.
