enforced data hiding. You want something actually designed
to try to prevent abuses from hostile programmers - go use .Net or Java, who
attempt to do that (I don't know with what level of success, but they at least
provide you the 'locks' and 'police' that you need).
you can usually access the privates anyway - it's just a bit harder to do, and a
lot harder to discover.
You pointed out previously that Python wasn't up to the task of running
untrusted code on my own application, and I agreed. _That_ is what you seem
need, and enforced data hiding

and always get "stores the age of the person", I don't think python has any
syntactical way of doing that. You could simulate it using properties, though
(do a 'help(property)' to see an example), but I'm not sure if that will be a
good solution.

I believe he had an answer... You didn't like it, though. I hope mine was more
palatable to you.

What could I do?

the size argument is negative or omitted, read until EOF is reached.
Notice that when in non-blocking mode, less data than what was requested
may be returned, even if no size parameter was given.

The stdin.readline() function doesn't share that behaviour (it returns as soon
as I hit 'enter').
??Is there any way to tell stdin's iterator not to buffer the input? Is it
part of the standard file protocol?

I'd like
2 = tee(iterator)
if any(i1):
# do something with i2
Question/Proposal:
Has there been any PEP regarding the problem of 'peeking' inside an iterator?
Knowing if the iteration will end or not, and/or accessing the next value,
without consuming it? Is there any (simple, elegant)
