I think he read it as lambda (x, y): (y, x) More interesting would be functools.rshift/lshift, that would rotate the positional arguments (with wrapping) def f(a, b, c, d, e): ... rshift(f, 3) --> g, where g(c, d, e, a, b) == f(a, b, c, d, e) Still don't see much advantage over writing a lambda (except perhaps speed). -Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
