IMO that is a non-sequitur, because that makes what is good or bad design dependand on the language used. If I have a design that seems to require tuples with a count method, then wether that is a good or bad design doesn't depend on whether or not python allows that or not. -- Antoon Pardon -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
