No it doesn't, it _raises_ an exception. This is a function that returns an error: def function(): """Returns an error.""" return Error() # defined elsewhere But to answer your question: > Do you know how to get that to work? It's a little bit messy, but this works: >>> f(*(g() + (10,))) 13 This is probably easier to read: >>> t = g() + (10,); f(*t) 13 -- Steven. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
