I don't really care to try to understand what your code actually means. It's so convoluted that it's absolute unmaintainable.

If you can make a reasonable description of what it does - I can guarantee that it's possible to write it far cleaner then what you have.

Did you not read the comments? There are even Python docstrings; did you not see those?

No, they don't describe the algorithm. Please, provide a coherent description in a natural language (I understand English, Russian, Ukrainian, German and Polish) then I can provide you its implementation that will be more compact and easy-to-understand than yours.

Funny, I didn’t see any such thing in the code examples you saw fit to refer me to. Yet you expected me to cope with them. And my code already has far more comments than they did.

What’s good for the goose, eh?
