Works fine for me: Python 2.5.4 (r254:67916, Sep 26 2009, 11:00:02) [GCC 4.3.4] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> t = ('a', 'b') >>> li = list(t) >>> print li ['a', 'b'] >>> >>> tu = tuple(li) >>> print tu ('a', 'b') > The error message is: "TypeError: 'tuple' object is not callable". Nothing in your example code is calling a tuple object. This makes me suspect that what you showed us is not what you actually tried. You might want to try the above session yourself and paste the resulting session *literally* (rather than re-typing) as I did above, so we can see what you're seeing. -- \ “If you ever fall off the Sears Tower, just go real limp, | `\ because maybe you'll look like a dummy and people will try to | _o__) catch you because, hey, free dummy.” —Jack Handey | Ben Finney -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
