During conversion, I got a Python error I don't remember seeing in the past:

because division returns a float, and some of the array addressing was
like this: nums[i/2].

C's "/" operator yields a result with the type of the operands (after
promotion to a common type).

Python's "/" operator yields a floating-point result.  For C-style
integer division, Python uses "//".  (Python 2 is more C-like.)

See https://docs.python.org/3/ or comp.lang.python, which is reasonably
active.
