[Tutor] following the chain

[Liam Clarke]

While we're on challenge 4, I assume a linked list is important. Can anyone 
point me at a good introduction to linked lists? 

Oh, and Servando - I use urllib like this - 

>>>import urllib
>>>opener = urllib.URLopener()
>>> page = opener.open('http://www.google.co.nz')
>>> pageData = page.read()

With urllib (& urllib2) you can add some fancy stuff to the basic URLopener 
object, including cookie handling.


Regards,
