data hiding. I know member vars are private when you prefix them with 2 underscores, but I hate prefixing my vars, I'd rather add a keyword before it.
Others touched on this, but I thought I'd throw it in here as well since I was just reading about this. Apparently the double underscore convention has nothing to do with data hiding. It's simply a mechanism for avoiding name clashes, and data hiding only *seems* to be a result of it.
Not that that helps your situation any. :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
