Sure, but on the other hand, you are really on your own when you avoid the compile time type safety in C++. While you might get an exception in Python, which you can handle in your code, or at least get a traceback from, anything can happen in C++, from data corruption to core dumps. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
