Alternatively, you could call one of the other methods in the class.
But since you gave us no clues, I'm shouldn't guess what it was called.
But if I were to make such a class, I might use slicing:
C[:] = [57, 50, 59, 60]
In 3.x, you would write __setitem__ to recognize that the 'key' is a
slice object rather than an int and act accordingly. (In 2.x, you would
write __setslice__.) Actually, if you write
def __setitem__(self, key, value):
self.somelist[key] = value
as you might have done already, you get slice getting, setting, and
deleting for free. Try Dave's line in your code.
