Baron Strang

Baron Strang, of Stonesfield in the County of Oxford, was a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 16 January 1954 for the prominent diplomat Sir William Strang,[1] Permanent Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs from 1949 to 1953. The title passed to his only son, the second Baron, who succeeded in 1978. He was a retired Professor of Philosophy at Newcastle University. There was no heir to the barony, which became extinct on his death in 2014.

gollark: If you use the browser you can use shorter `document.write`.
gollark: Also, `console.log` is smaller than `process.stdout.write` and maybe technically allowed.
gollark: It might be more efficient in *yours*, sound, to only bother checking the first two characters of each subthing of user input.
gollark: Also, `c=s[i]` should go above `if s[i]=="i"` and this should be `if c=="i"`, I think.
gollark: If you factor in the size of doing all the indents it might be cheaper to do `s=input()` rather than making a function..
