[Tutor] fast list traversal

[Dinesh B Vadhia]

I need to process a large number (> 20,000) of long and variable length lists (> 5,000 elements) ie.

for element in long_list:
    <do something with element>        # the result of this operation is not a list

The performance is reasonable but I wonder if there are faster Python methods?
