I have been a social sciences teacher for the past 15 years and am just now trying to learn to code. Midlife crisis maybe?
itertools eh? Looks like something for this newbie to look up.

Well done. I am still trying to understand how it works. So you iterate through the tuple pairs in your NEIGHBOURS list checking first to see if the row is within the boundaries of the grid, then the same for the columns and then to see which "neighbours" of the actual target cell contains a 1 (and

I can't see all of your code, but thank you for pointing me in the direction of chr and ord. I converted my positions to coordinates by creating a blank "board" first, but only because I didn't think of using the "values" of the letters.

It is strange. I started out with the same basic code but kept getting an error that I was trying to index using a float -- even when using int. The only way I could get it to work was by using // which I just learned returns and int (kind of like .floor)

This was the same approach I had, except that I saved the "has_length" check for the boolean comparison at the end. I think yours is more efficient because it exits before having to check the other conditions. Thanks for helping me see that.

I like you you checked for the len of the first list item. I just used 3, but checking for the length could help adapt this to take varying grid sizes.

What are the asserts at the top of your code used for? May sound stupid from a newbie, but can you explain what this code does? Thanks.

Excellent! When am I going to learn to index from the other end? Thanks for the education!
