Fixed this comment from mzz: Nitpicking: ?Strings are just sequences of characters? is slightly misleading because Python does not have a separate type for characters. Iterating over a string gives you strings of length 1 (which you can convert to int or use directly). This is occasionally important (like when trying to flatten a structure recursively: recursing into the length 1 strings is bad?)
