hi all am searching for a key in a list, am using Found = 0 for item in list: if not key == item: Found = 0 elif key == item: Found =1
Now based on the Found value i ll manipulate the list. but whenever the "key and item" doesnt match it makes "Found = 0", even though i have an item that matches the key, but it overwrites the Found variable to 0, in the next loop when "key ! = item", and hence all my calculations are going wrong, If i find a key in my list, some how the variable "Found " should be 1,till it comes out of the loop. How can i do that. thanks in advance yogi -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
