Actually, it is equivalent to y = z x = y > Python performs chained assignments backwards compared to other languages... C and C++ are both right-to-left, like Python. In Pascal, Modula I/II/III, and Ada, assignments are not expressions, so it's not a meaningful question there. John Nagle -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
