You want one item to have cheese, eggs, and milk?

Each list item could be a tuple consisting of the item name and a dict containing the item's price at various stores, for example: # start with an empty list shopping_list = [] # make a 'cheese' item cheese = ('Cheese', { 'Walmart' : 5.00, 'Publix': 5.50, 'Costco': 4.99 } ) # add cheese to the shopping list shopping_list.append(cheese) -- John Gordon Imagine what it must be like for a real medical doctor to gor...@panix.com watch 'House', or a real serial killer to watch 'Dexter'. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
