Ok, that was mean-spirited. The code is below - it's related to another problem but maybe it can be adapted to your own. Good luck! def irows(n): i=0 while True: yield divmod(i,n) i += 1 x = [0,0,0,7,0,0,0,0] d = dict(zip(enumerate(x), irows(2))) assert d[x.index(7),7] == (1,1) assert d[x.index(0),0] == (0,0) d = dict(zip(irows(2),x)) assert d[1,1] == 7 sudoku = dict(zip(irows(9),[[0]]*81)) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
