Use Steven Rumbalski’s character comparison (thank you!). Doesn’t use the loop despite that saving one character so that it can count 51 by @Lego’s metric

Very nice. Beat my unposted 62 length solution for c in input():print([c,(chr(ord(c)+32))]['@'<c<'['],end=''). I tried some with the map(ord,input()) trick, but missed the multiplying the truth value by 32 and adding it to the character code trick. Very nice.

@JeffGohlke: map applies a function (in this case, ord) to an interable and returns an iterable. It’s like a shorter form of (ord(x) for x in input()).

Can you explain how this works? I'm really interested in getting better at Python. I don't get how the map(ord,input()) bit works.
