Thanks for your help. Those weren't quite what I was looking for, but
I ended up figuring it out on my own. Turns out you can actually
search nested Python lists using simple regular expressions.

I'm creating a data plot and need to display the image to a web page.
What's the best way of doing this without having to save the image to
disk? I already have a mod_python script that outputs the data in
tabular format, but I haven't been able to find anything on adding a
generated image.

Obviously I'm going to assume that the code you posted excluded your
loop control for the "try n amount of times". What was most likely
the cause is that you loop through your structure for every attempt of
the n times but each time you reset your list when you re-create it.
Hope that helps some.

Masses of print statements might work for debugging but you can get a
better structure through something else. If you have a specific
message for those you could always build a dictionary containing the
messages and access them like
msg_dict = {'A':'Message for A', 'B':'Message for
B',..,'Z':'Message for Z'}
for part1, part2 in matches: # You have a 2 element structure,
(part1, part2) inside the list and lists are iterable
if part2 == 1: # Test the value
try:
print msg_dict[part1]
except KeyError:
print 'Amino Acid listed not on record' # or you can just
simply pass over and not log anything
Hope that helps.
