And he's wrong, at least as far as common lisp is concerned - map does exactly that. http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/f_map.htm Map doesn't work on generators or iterators because they're not part of the common lisp spec, but if someone implemented them as a library, said library could easily include a map that handled them as well. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
