It's a good start, but there are many other differences. a[i] can mean getattr (but usually not), and can throw a KeyError. Similarly, a.b may return null if it doesn't exist, while in Python it will throw an AttributeError. You might need to add uses of global or nonlocal. And there are a lot of other small details. However, I think it will be much easier than translating the other way around :)
