Normally, if one writes a method like this: def get(self, k, default=None):
one can call it as foo.get('x',2) or as foo('x',default=2). But not with dict.get. I'm amazed I've never tripped over this before. (Yes, I appreciate that dict is a builtin class written in C.) Cheers, Cameron Simpson <c...@cskk.id.au> -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
