Just curious about people's sense of style: To delete all the elements of a list, should one do:
lst[:] = [] or del(lst[:]) I seem to see the first form much more often in code, but the second one seems more clearly *deleting* elements, and less dangerously mistaken for the completely different: lst = [] What do you think? -- George Young -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
