Thanks for your magic answer.
But i am not so good at magic ;-)
If i want to generalize to a arbitrary number of variables, i got
syntax errors.
Within a class, you can only method/class definitions and assignments.
It is therefore difficult to do something like:
for idx, attr_name in enumerate(attribute_names):
setattr(__metaclass__,attr_name, property(lambda cls:idx)
for idx, attr_name in enumerate(attribute_names):
setattr(T,attr_name, property(lambda self:self[idx])
