I knew I shouldn't feed the troll, but anyway. 'lambda' is a keyword. So there's no doubt looking in LIBRARY Reference and not finding it. There exists a document called LANGUAGE Reference, with description of 'lambda' keyword. http://python.org/doc/2.4.1/ref/lambdas.html. ('while' statement is also documented in Language Reference.) So to quote from Xah Lee: > Fuck the [...] ignorant fuckheads. Motherfucking don't know > shit and yet lying thru their teeth [...]. You can't complain about lacks of knowledge if you don't know where to look. BTW, you post to the wrong group. Regards, -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
