"counter is 2" is a bug. A dangerous sleeping bug. See http://drj11.wordpress.com/2007/06/11/python-perils-of-«x-is-1»/ Nice article by the way. Paddy is right. “counter is 2″ is a bug. A dangerous sleeping bug.

Nice article by the way.

Try the following example: >>> x=2000 >>> y = 123456 - 121456 >>> x is y False >>> x == y True >>> x,y (2000, 2000) >>> id(x),id(y) (11789976, 12382812) >>> - Paddy. You say:
if counter is 2
In one of your examples instead of:
if counter == 2
Although C-Python may well work with what you state I think it would be better to say the latter because , in general, ‘is’ cannot be used instead of ‘==’ when comparing integers.

Try the following example:

>>> x=2000
>>> y = 123456 - 121456
>>> x is y
False
>>> x == y
True
>>> x,y
(2000, 2000)
>>> id(x),id(y)
(11789976, 12382812)
>>>
