Hmmmm... the reason what I use the list comprehension was the description "call that thing for every thing in those things" The first time I something saw this I though, in my C befuddled head 'huh? that's backwards!' But, then the more I thought about it I recall that this is how some people speak. Still I prefer funcs[:]() Because, I can describe it in English as "call everything that funcs has" (BTW, I have yet to write my first line of Perl. It that good thing or a bad thing?) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
