>>> for x in xrange(2**31):

for x in xrange(2**31):
OverflowError: long int too large to convert to int

I can think of 2 workarounds for this 2**31 limitation in xrange().
Use a while loop instead. Or use 2 or more for loops, keeping the
number of cycles in each under 2**31.
Are there others?
Thanks,
