This idiom has a pitfall. Consider

If B can evaluate to a false value, such as None or 0, the expression

Some quick notes:

No need for the 'print' here, options() already prints. The extra
print will print the return value of options(), which is None.

This is getting pretty far off topic. Let's not have an editor
flamewar please. If you like vim, great! Use it! If you don't like
vim, great! Use something else. If everyone liked the same editor
features there wouldn't be so many to choose from.
Thanks,

Hello Tutors,
I'm trying to write a small scrip to find collocations using chi squared,
depending on a fairly big corpus.
The program below does a good job, but it's too slow, and I need to process
something like 50 million words.
How can I make it run fast?
Your help is appreciated.

Minor nit, but the word you're looking for here is script. Scrip
is also an English word but means something completely different.
This may sound silly, but I've been searching for a reliable method
for installing the python-ldap module for Python 2.4 in a Windows XP
environment. Actually, I'm looking for a method that would work
cross-platform with Linux and OS X as well, or at least methods that
were close enough in nature
Dear Steve,
Thank you so much for your help.
Actually this is not homework. It's gonna be used in building a collocation
dictionary as part of my dissertation. Please remeber that I'm not a
programmer, so many of the terminologies may not be accessible to me.
Thank you also for attracting my
