So one wonders, of course, why Mr. Otten chose 1000; and one explores: $ python Python 2.4.3 (#2, Jul 31 2008, 21:56:52) [snip] >>> for x in 2, 100, 199, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600: ... list( set( [ 1, x ] ) ) ... [1, 2] [1, 100] [1, 199] [200, 1] [1, 300] [400, 1] [1, 500] [600, 1] >>> -- To email me, substitute nowhere->spamcop, invalid->net. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
