Ah, I see the problem now: you're expecting that after
for p, elt in enumerate(mylist):
<do_stuff>
p will be equal to len(mylist)-1. That's true if mylist is nonempty
(because on the last round of the for loop, p gets the value len(mylist)-
1), but if mylist is empty then no assignment to p or to elt is ever made.
That's just the way that Python for loops work, I'm afraid. :-)
