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..
gollark: Just brotlipython it.
gollark: I don't see how this line works though: `if c in"ae":a+=int(c=="a")`. I mean, it doesn't look like it would decrement the accumulator at all.
gollark: Fiiiiine. `bin(a).replace("0b","")` should probably just be `bin(a)[2:]`. `eval` in the same line should probbaly be `int`.
