Your Python code is just wrong. I'm not sure what you think it's proving when you write explicitly wrong Python code, and then show that the output is wrong.

>Your Python code is just wrong.

Could you elaborate? I want to understand how to fix it.

EDIT: I really want to know what is wrong with my code. It works. Is it a stylistic concern?

    $ dd bs=1m count=10 if=/dev/random of=randomdata
    10+0 records in
    10+0 records out
    10485760 bytes transferred in 0.878533 secs (11935535 bytes/sec)
    $ python stdin_to_stdout.py < randomdata | cmp - randomdata
    $ echo $?
    0
EDIT2: I think I know how you came to the conclusion my code is wrong. Perhaps next time you should read the __entire__ post. Thank you.
