If you are used to working in a language that doesn't allow it then you'll probably carry on using the work-arounds that you have always used. It almost certainly only seems obscure because you're not considering it when it would be a natural solution. In a language that builds *very* heavily on the concept of dictionaries it's not obscure at all! -- Tim Rowe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
