Why doesn't this work? >>> def foo(lst): ... class baz(object): ... def __getitem__(cls, idx): return cls.lst[idx] ... __getitem__=classmethod(__getitem__) ... baz.lst = lst ... return baz ... >>> f = foo([1,2,3]) >>> f[0] Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? TypeError: unsubscriptable object >>> f.__getitem__(0) 1 >>>
I thought x[y] and x.__getitem__(y) were supposed to always be synonymous. Thanks, rg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
