It's also the representation of a one-column result row, which is more pertinent here. Just because ‘str(foo) == str(bar)’, does *not* necessarily mean ‘type(foo) == type(bar)’, nor even ‘isinstance(foo, type(bar))’. It's important to know that result rows are *not* tuples, and that they have different (and more flexible) semantics. -- \ “To succeed in the world it is not enough to be stupid, you | `\ must also be well-mannered.” —Voltaire | _o__) | Ben Finney -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
