Yes. He did so in the context of showing that *there is no precise number* that universally applies for the amount of effort required. Add as many numbers as you like, provided they're all in the same broad range. That is the point, and showing there are multiple numbers in play is *supporting* Steven's point. I still don't know what point you had, but I'm not really interested any more. -- \ “This sentence contradicts itself — no actually it doesn't.” | `\ —Douglas Hofstadter | _o__) | Ben Finney -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
