No, the leading 'it' in the newsgroup name means 'italian'.  I was one
of the discussants.

The *example* is right there, e.g. at
<http://groups.google.co.uk/group/it.comp.lang.python/msg/4edfee13b6fb51
6f> for the Python translation of the example found at a URL quoted in
the same post.  If you want an EXAMPLE, there it is -- it's all code, no
comments, so the fact that the following discussion is in Italian should
be irrelevant, no?

What the following discussion says is that the C++ -> Python
transliteration is totally trivial and obvious and berates the original
requestor for making me waste 10 minutes to provide it.
