¡Ay, caramba! I was with you until the very last line. The above code is
possibly buggy and inappropriately designed. (I may be completely
misinterpreting this, in which case feel free to ignore the following
rant.)
I'd think the biggest problem with this is that if one runs Python with
optimization turned on, the assert statement itself vanishes, leaving one
with an empty else clause...
Try debugging that problem!
I'll pass on that one :)
