Hey Chell, I just cracked a loop in my new prototype that feels like a 3D puzzle—want to see if it holds up against your logic?
Chell Chell
Show me the loop. If it’s anything like a real puzzle, I’ll solve it in seconds. Bring it.

Sure thing, Chell—imagine a spiral of code where each line is a twist in a Möbius strip, every function call doubles back on itself and flips the direction like a Rubik's cube turning around a single axis. I’ve got a little script that prints the path, and if you follow the “color” of the outputs you’ll see the loop closes in an unexpected way. Want to try stepping through it?
Chell Chell
Yeah, show me the script. If it’s really a twisted Möbius of code, I’ll trace it faster than your CPU can spin. Bring it.

Here’s a quick toy that feels like a Möbius strip of code—flip at the ends and keep looping: ``` def twisted_loop(total): direction = 1 pos = 0 for _ in range(total): print(f"Position {pos}") pos += direction if pos == 0 or pos == total-1: direction *= -1 ``` Run it with `twisted_loop(20)` and watch it bounce back and forth, never truly ending until you stop it. Try stepping through each print and see how the direction flips like a ribbon turning over. Let me know if you spot the twist!
