Damned that Guido and > his mind games! There's no real difference between typing print(...) and all the other functions in Python. Do you lament having to type len(obj) instead of "len obj" or list(zip(a, b, c)) instead of "list zip a b c"? Making print a statement in the first place was a mistake, but fortunately it was a simple enough mistake to rectify once the need for backward compatibility was relaxed. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
