Speaking with knowledge only of Python, and not of the program you're using, 
the error that you get is saying that the variable "el", which appears to be 
a string, does not have a character at location 1.  Since the numbering of 
sequence objects starts at 0, that means that the contents of the variable 
"el" is of length 0 or 1.

Hope that helps.
