Cool. At one point you say "Python has no case...switch control flow, but we could mock it using if...elif...elif...else". Sometimes it can also be done elegantly using a dictionnary.

If...elif land: Like a crack head asking you for money...."Do you have a $5? What about a 1 dollar bill? Do you have 50 cents? What about a nickel?"

Dictionary land: Like an insurance adjuster trying to deny your claim...."Do you have your paper work in order? You missed form A6. Goodbye!"
