7 This code's *very* messy, and only parses TeX in the very specific format you've provided, and won't always give you errors if the input document is “malformed”, but it should work:

3 A pseudo-random number generator can be modelled as an infinite stream of bits. Every time you generate a number using the pseudo-random number generator, it shifts the stream along, returning and discarding the bits at the beginning. Seeding the PRNG discards the current stream and selects the one specified by the seed.

Why did Python core developers decide to "allow" instantiation of abstract classes (classes that are inheriting from abc.ABC or abc.ABCMeta)? Is it one of those, "we are all responsible adults here. put underscore at the beginning of private properties. don't access them directly even if you _can_"

They are all good thoughts — and mostly applicable in other communities too. I guess an answer that's useful for future users is one that explicitly draws out a principle of good coding, so we have to hope that that is the way people will vote in practice
