In Python, could I simply ++ a char? What is an efficient way of doing this?
I want to iterate through URLs that have the www.website.com/term/#, www.website.com/term/a, www.website.com/term/b, www.website.com/term/c, www.website.com/term/d ... www.website.com/term/z format.
In addition to string. ascii_lowercase you should also take a look at the ord and chr built-ins. ord('a') will give you the ascii value for 'a' and chr(ord('a')) will give you back the string 'a' . Using these you can increment and decrement through character codes and convert back and forth easily enough.
You can use string.ascii_lowercase
which is simply a convenience string of lowercase letters,
>>> from string import ascii_lowercase >>> for c in ascii_lowercase: ... # append to your url
