The "for .. in" statement invokes the __iter__() method of the iterable object to get an iterator (maybe via the builtin iter() function). Iterators have an __iter__() method as well which returns the iterator itself. Thus, >>> it = iter(range(10)) >>> it is iter(it) True Marko -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
