When I Google for <Python FAQ>, almost all of the search results on the first page are Python FAQs. The third link even has a "newsgroup" FAQ although I doubt it is what you want, even though you said otherwise. Therefore I asked a question on why you want a *newsgroup* FAQ when it sounds like you want a *Python* FAQ, so that I and others could potentially be more helpful in answering your unasked question. >> I don't know why you would want to look in a FAQ *specific* to a >> newsgroup to look up slicing questions, > > I have a specific question about list slicing and this is a python NG. > What's not to understand? I can't understand why you think your list slicing problem is specific to the newsgroup and not to Python. > Is your attitude indicitive of most people on this NG or are you just > one of those NG guys who gets off on making the new people feel stupid? > If it's the former, I'll just go away. If that's the way you respond to people who are trying to help you, please do so. -- Michael Hoffman -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
