I am not sure to follow you about "In Python a function can't be an expression". The method "do_slots_assign" should able to set attributes. > Likewise, I have a question on the *apply functions.

Here "better" is context-dependent, I suppose. If my_function can be written in Python, one option is: m = data_structure res = [ my_function( m.rx(i+1, True) )for i in xrange(m.nrow) ] L. > Thanks! > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the > world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference > attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through > interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. > http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev > > > > _______________________________________________ > rpy-list mailing list > rpy-list@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rpy-list ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ rpy-list mailing list rpy-list@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rpy-list
