One of the little irritants of Python is that the range syntax is rather long-winded: [Dbg]>>> range(3, 20, 6) [3, 9, 15] [Dbg]>>> It would be nice if one could have something like 3:20:6.
I've just come across the r_class in numpy which doesn't go that far but does provide a generalization of the above: [Dbg]>>> r_[1:6:2, 6:8, (10, 11, 13), [20,25]] array([ 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 13, 20, 25]) [Dbg]>>> Colin W. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
