The problem is that other people -not necesarily "smarter and more experienced" than you- may use those features, and perhaps you have to read, understand and modify some code written by someone else. So, you should at least know what "a += b" means, even if you are not going to use it. -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
