Note: I'm not an expert on essay writing.

My first objection is that it is written in Python 2 and not Python 3. Second, your final 'print()' can be much cleaner and pythonic, see https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/inputoutput.html for some examples.

I've never written a thesis, but wouldn't you want some spacing between sections with, perhaps some header? Also, a final summarized statement might be called for.

Thanks for the feedback. I didn't mean a thesis paper, but a thesis paragraph for a regular essay. I was just going with the structure my professor told us to use: Thesis statement, mp1, relevancy 1, mp2, r2, mp3, r3.
