Yes. Here's how to do it: import random import time class Car: def throttle(self, on): if on: print "full throttle" else: print "on that oil slick again" class ThatOilSlick: def __contains__(self, item): return random.random() < .7 class Game: def __init__(self): self.car = Car() self.thatOilSlick = ThatOilSlick() def play(self): while True: self.car.throttle(self.car in self.thatOilSlick) time.sleep(.2) if __name__ == "__main__": Game().play() :-) Look here for further information: www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
