But it > does tell me that `7 is in`. ;) Python-list is not Stackoverflow. It is a text mailing list, not a web page. Here, the backticks are not markup; they are just distracting noise.

Here, the initial 4 space indents are not markup. They just makes it impossible to cut, paste, and run your code without extra work. -- Terry Jan Reedy
