The "for ... in ..." construct is a loop. I'm not sure what you're
trying to accomplish here, but you're taking the last entry in
self.array and unpacking that as a nested array. Perhaps not what you
had in mind.

For what you're doing there, though, a class is overkill. Remember,
Python isn't Java; the most natural way to do everything isn't
necessarily to write a class that unpacks things and packs them up
again in a different way.
