Hi There, Please let me rephrase the problem as many people misunderstood what i was trying to ask.
I know that the __init__ is the class constructor, that was not my question. under the def __init__ are several assignments self.__list = list self.refresh = 360 i wish to add some more assignments of this type to this function. what is the significance ( if any ) of the __ in these self.xxxxxx assignments. If i look at chapter 9.5 in the tutorial (v2.3.4) then it talks about private variables.... is this the same thing Cheers -- Jeffrey Borkent Systems Specialist Information Technology Services University of Adelaide Level 7, 10 Pultney Street Adelaide. 5005 Ph: 8303 3000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------- CRICOS Provider Number 00123M ----------------------------------------------------------- This email message is intended only for the addressee(s) and contains information that may be confidential and/or copyright.
