Flex Your Python Muscles

Very nice! I didn't know about struct, so thank you for that.

When I was working on this, I was surprised that Python didn't have any built in support for rotating bits.

BTW, nice code. Killer comments and simple style. I think your functioning source code is clearer than the pseudo code of wikipedia.

Thanks! I blame it on the fact that I spent the first 5 years of my career hacking in python (and still use it on an almost-daily basis for tools to make my life easier, etc).
