I can't infer from your question whether you already know about __contains__(). So there: >>> class Cornucopia: ... def __contains__(self, other): ... return True ... >>> c = Cornucopia() >>> 42 in c True >>> "cherry pie" in c True >>> c in c True -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
