Your picture didn't come through.  This is a text-based mailing list
gated to a Usenet group, many participants wouldn't receive an
attached picture no matter how you tried to do it.  Instead, just copy
and paste the code you're running and the exact output you get into
the body of a message, making sure that the formatting (especially
indentation, which is significant in Python) is kept by your email
client.  The simplest step towards ensuring good formatting is to send
your message in plain text mode (rather than HTML).

With your code in hand, I'm sure someone here will be able to explain
what's going on :)
