I explained what i meant in previous post there was nothing more than just a discussion I have no real problem here just more of a sore point in style for me. I feel that parens are quite overloaded and it can be confusing to newbies. But if the parens are just fluff then get rid of them, it is clearer * at least to me * ;) There are enough things wrapped in parens nowadays it is starting to look like lisp. > BTW, UIAM it is the commas that define tuples, so the outermost parens are really >expression >parens more than tuple syntax. Hadn't really thought of that way but it makes sense >>> w = 1,2,3 >>> w.__doc__ """tuple() -> an empty tuple tuple(sequence) -> tuple initialized from sequence's items
If the argument is a tuple, the return value is the same object.""" Thanks for your time Bengt! M.E.Farmer -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
