My spelling is not brilliant especially when typing live and so you have 
proved why books need proof-reading.

In particular "lose" is what I meant. Python, the name of the language, 
is a proper noun and should be captialised. In the few pages I read, 
Python appears as "python" and "Python", randomly losing the capital 
letter. Lacking capitalisation would suggest to me that some or all 
words are consistently written without the capital letter such as always 
writing "united states of america".
