Thanks for the great feedback! I was missing the whole "methods that share the same data" aspect of a class.. Thats makes them MUCH more clear to understand. Thanks for both of you having the patience to help me figure this out =D Time for me to ditch the classes from my

Most people get hung up on the data aspect of classes
and forget that the behaviour(the methods) are actually
the most important bit. However you have

Isolating it, the following piece of code continually eats memory. Is it my

Okay, so let's see where we are.
Integers, as well as strings, and everything else, are stored in memory

This is a given, because the architecture of the computer is binary.
You say 'the string representation of the integer is in base-10.'
Okay, well, python's representation of any obje
