We want your work to be readable by others; therefore, we encourage you to note the following:

- Please write in Python 3.7+. For instance: `print()` is a function in Python 3 so `print "Hello"` will *not* work but `print("Hello")` will.
- Please write in Python 3.9+. For instance: `print()` is a function in Python 3 so `print "Hello"` will *not* work but `print("Hello")` will.
- Please focus hard on naming of functions, classes, and variables. Help your reader by using __descriptive names__ that can help you to remove redundant comments.
- Single letter variable names are *old school* so please avoid them unless their life only spans a few lines.
- Expand acronyms because `gcd()` is hard to understand but `greatest_common_divisor()` is not.
