For me the (newly added) first one, because it has (for me) less noise. But I can certainly live with the last one. Or all for that matter. Or maybe: since the results are already somewhat complex (or noisy) I probably would use a "normal" if else. What surprises me is that this is still discussed. It's like argueing about significant whitespace. :-) -- John Bokma j3b Blog: http://johnbokma.com/ Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/j.j.j.bokma Freelance Perl & Python Development: http://castleamber.com/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
