/Ad hominem/ when out of arguments. How typical. Do you deny that “123456789” *is* “a sequence containing all nine numbers” (digits, really), and that “111111111” *is* “a sequence containing only 1s”? Do you deny that therefore your second sentence contradicts the first one? -- PointedEars Twitter: @PointedEars2 Please do not cc me. / Bitte keine Kopien per E-Mail. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
