It's extremely hard to guess what you want (not "we", but "you" - no one 
else wants this kind of thing) when you have bizarre requirements and 
only give bits of them.  So modifying the Python code is left as an 
exercise if you are interested, especially as it is off-topic.

I appreciate that Python programming will be more difficult than C 
programming if you are familiar with C and have never written Python. 
That's not the point.  The point is that for someone reasonably familiar 
with both languages, some types of coding - such as the ones discussed 
here - are faster and easier to develop in Python.
