what is the idiom for copy lots of params into self?

Dear Experts, When writing large classes, I sometimes find myself needing to copy a lot of parameters from the argument of __init__ into self. Instead of having twenty lines that all basically say something like self.x = x, I often use __dict__ via something like: class example: def __init__

I'm writing a package where I need to use the uuid module. Unfortunately, that module is only available in Python 2.5, and my package needs to be compatible with 2.4. I'm planning to copy it from Python 2.5's stdlib into my package, and import it like this: try: import uuid except ImportEr
