Thanks for the pointer.  I just read it!

P.S. - In the final remark about g2, I presume the 'B' (not 'b') typecode
type did not exist at the time of the writing?  I just tried:

        >>> a=array.array('B', 'François')
        >>> print a.tostring()
        François

So, I guess the "There's a catch..." sentence could be eliminated from
the essay, and the 'b' replaced by 'B' instead.
