They don't have to be. They just are. That's like asking why do some functions start with the letters a-m, and others with n-z. Why can't they all begin with a-m? The answer would be that it would make the language harder to use to cram concepts that should more naturally start with n-z into spellings that start with a-m. -- Michael Hoffman -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
