Usually, it does. But presenting me with a fake and obviously-not-logical-and-useful version of constants didn't really say anything about why is having constants such a bad idea :-) Just like presenting me with a rotten apple doesn't prove anything general about that fruit. I'm not into endless/pointless advocacy; I'm really curious. And - as I've answered to someone else - I dont't *require* anyone to change anything in the language. I just miss the feature and can't really think of a sensible reason why it so wrong. Best regards, Waldek -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
