Probably youtube.com/watch?v=npw4s1QTmPg is the video you seek.

And PLEASE: refer to pythonclock.org. Does it make sense to refer to the documentation of a language that will become unsupported in 42 days? (And, more to the point, has an outdated implementation of dictionaries.)

Thanks for pointing that out. I'm well aware of Python2's EOL. I think providing a few good leads for someone looking for answers was a kind thing to do.

I doubt Python2's implementation is dangerous to the extent that it's harmful to share what I did. Please be careful to build on other's answers, instead of discouraging folks from trying to drop a few leads.

I acknowledge that if I had directly provided links to source, it would have been better that they were more up-to-date sources. I wasn't in a position to do that, so gave what I had.

That's not the specific video, but it's probably a better example than the one I remember. So thanks for pointing that one out! ;)

It is much better to provide links and things to Python 3.x resources, for sure!

Not dangerous, just useless (in the context). I can't see how changing 2 to 3 in that url could be perceived as so hard to do.
