[Chicago] Just sharing with everyone in the group.

[Nick Timkovich]

Looking at your code, the biggest stylistic faux pas is the
"casting"--(int)(input)--you can wrap nearly anything in parenthesis (i.e.
a function call), but it's really strange.

I did a few passes through your code at lunch and went a bit overboard, but
here's a Gist that's maybe how I'd go about it
https://gist.github.com/nicktimko/39a41948cff170ae7d0b  Check the revisions
for some slightly more incremental changes and ask if you have any
questions.

Arguing Python 2 vs. Python 3 is pointless IMHO; Python 3 is the future and
there are fewer reasons to use 2 every day as old modules are updated. It
should be used by default for all new projects unless there is a concrete
reason at the outset why it won't work (e.g. you need to use Twisted).
