These are questions answered by getting a thorough grounding in the
fundamentals of Python. Please follow the Python tutorial
<URL:http://docs.python.org/tutorial/>, from beginning to end, to learn
about the basics like this.

I understand your frustration in this case, but there's no call for such
vitriol. Please keep it off this forum.

 From http://www.thefreedictionary.com/vitriol - "Bitterly abusive
