There is a public C API starting in 2.5, the progression for sets was pure-python in 2.3, C in 2.4, and polished in 2.5 after it was better understood how people use them. If Hettinger is around he'll correct me if that explanation is off. > If I want to handle sets should I just use a dictionary's keys and > ignore the values, or is there some more explicit set support somewhere > I'm not seeing? There are people that use sets from C-code but I don't know if they use the slotted methods, the 2.5 version, or a special build. -Jack -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
