Note to Pythonista's

I'm not much of a Pythonista, so feel free to jump in here and make sweeping changes, as long as you don't mess with the logic. (Basically just don't break the algorithm, you're free to switch libraries, or add features as much as you want I don't care, it does what I want that's good enough for me)
