    Of course; I did not claim the posted version as "'only|sole|last' one variation" (but "a variation").

    Problem with your first variation -- for that matter, any other code in which things are aligned along the columns -- is that aligning commas for short varaibles like "luck" is too much effort. (Second one is just ridiculous overkill.)

    (I was hoping not to contribute anything (as I do not have much to say about brain d foy's points) but I was suckered in anyway.)
