It seems like I'm repeating myself here. Is there a standard way to deal with code like this?

"""Return a dictionary of a name's parts.

Instead of having to use something like char buf[100500] and hope that no possible user input could be longer than 100500 bytes, I decided to make the following function:
char* input (FILE* in, size_t size)
{
char * input_str = NULL;
int c;
size_t len = 0;

I am new to Python (and coding in general) and after about a week of reading "Thinking Like a Computer Scientist: Learning with Python" I decided to try and build a version the classic "guessing game". I added some extra features such as counting the number of guesses the user takes, and playing ...
My solution keeps returning infinity as the sum of all the even numbers.
I have seen that javascript has no Long and other answers suggested using libraries that handle large numbers.
How do I fix this without using any library?
Also, any suggestions on how to improve this code is welcomed.

As Joel points out in Stack Overflow podcast #34, in C Programming Language (aka: K & R), there is mention of this property of arrays in C: a[5] == 5[a]
Joel says that it's because of pointer arithmetic but I still don't understand. Why does a[5] == 5[a]?
