ugh, can someone who is online at this time give me some pointers on how to
read this?

i don't know how to look it up,

in is listed,
out is not, so i am not sure if this is python at all.

The fastest version of the algorithm is this one:

In [4]:import array

In [5]:def f7(list):
   .5.:  return array.array('B', list).tostring()
   .5.:

In [6]:f7([97, 98, 99])
Out[6]:'abc'


The implicit loop is the "tostring" function. It is written in C and
it happens to perform the desired algorithm. So there is nothing
magical about "implicit loops". It just means: Find a library
function that is written in C and that performs your task.

For manipulating images it means: Find some operations in PIL that do
what you want, and don't look at pixel values.

Kind regards,
Eike.
