My script.

[Tetsuo]

I imported the module into the shell and called the function. (Is that the 
only way to make multi-line programs in the shell? I can't figure it out.) 
It gave me cicra 550 loops per second at first, then 800, then 1171. How is 
that explained? If it's caching, what is cached? (I am generally unfamiliar 
with the concept.) But why would the shell do this caching, but not the 
IDE?

Zero division? Is it my comp or ActivePython? I wish I could get the 
regular kind to run...

You ask what this thing measures? Well, for one, the speed of the "print" 
command. On my comp, it's suspiciously slow, and I wanted to know if that's 
just how Python works, or if I got screwed over. Also, how different 
versions of Python compare, and how much my comp sucks.

It's not too reliable a measure of anything... But those zero divisions 
show me that, maybe, Python ain't as slow as this comp makes it look.

I made some cosmetic changes:

    b = 1001
    h = '"I am a bad computer"'
    s = "I'll never misbehave again... :("

    for i in range(b):
        print i + ". I am a bad computer :("

But that gives me an error. What's the correct way to concatenate 
variables?
