I'm not sure what distinction you're referring to, can you explain? Obviously there is a syntax difference between x.attr and x['key'], but attributes *are* items in a dictionary (ignoring __slots__ and __getattr__ for the time being). Either the instance __dict__, the class __dict__, or a superclass __dict__. -- Steven -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
