Well first of all, I prefer to use an editor which will allow me
to indent or dedent entire blocks of code at a time. There are lots
of others, but Idle (which almost certainly came with your copy of
Python) is one... select the block then use tab or shift-tab.

Also, in your case there's another quick work-around:


    #for i in range(0,3):
    #    for j in range(0,3):
    for i in range(0,1):
        for j in range(0,1):

        ... rest of program goes here...


Notice how I left in the for loops, but made sure that each
occurred only once.
