print str.translate(trantab)i hope you didnt translate it by hand. thats what computers are for. doing it in by hand is inefficient and that's why this text is so long. using string.maketrans() is recommended. now apply on the url.

按提示打开网页源代码，注释中有一段提示：
<!--
find rare characters in the mess below:
-->是在一堆字符里面找出一小部分字符：
import urllib
import re
def get_text(link):
return urllib.urlopen(link).read()
src = get_text('http://www.pythonchallenge.com/pc/def/ocr.html')
text = re.compile('<!--((?:[^-]+|-[^-]|--[^>])*)-->', re.S).findall(src)[-1]
print ''.join(re.findall('[a-z]', text))最后结果为：equality
