ElementTree in the standard library is one good choice here
if you're not wedded to one of DOM or SAX.
What have you tried so far? No one is going to write code for you, but
we'd be happy to help you fix problems with your own code.

This same issue also comes up with people noticing that they can
compare small integers with the 'is' operator, and getting a surprise
when bigger numbers come along:

True

Here you are attempting to call a function with the name 'lines'. But
'lines' has been assigned an integer above.
I'm assuming that elsewhere you've defined a function called 'lines'.

which is why you can (or should be able
to without breaking your code) remove them entirely and know that your
program will run identically. That's why folks are quick to jump on
cases where assertions are used as control-flow constructs. (In your
function, however, they aren't.)
In a sense, assertions /are/ meaningless, except to the programmer.
FWIW, you can use "if __debug__:" and put anything you like in the
statement suite and the whole if statement goes away when run with '-
O'. Sort of a "super-assert".

Broadly speaking, lists are useful for things like stacks and queues,
and sorting, while tuples are useful for aggregating heterogeneous
data into coherent units, and you can hash them (provided their
