You sure are going to great lengths to protect Stephens assertion ;) > That being said, Stephen's statement was very broad, but I think it's > true: print is primarily used in small scripts, or script-like testing > functions/methods. No, Stephen's comments were NOT general in any way and they where in fact very specific... "If you use the print statement/function you're are a noob and your code is a toy". And i think there's and air of "also you're beneath me" in the tone of it too. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
