Hmmm.. I think maybe if if don't ever access shape (or Shape) directly

Some of the things I want to add, but aren't exactly sure how at this time:
Nested groups
Use tags to be able to change sub items later
Have items get attribues from the group if it doesn't have them
Hope this isn't too long.

How about...

__setattr__ = dict.__setitem__
__delattr__ = dict.__delitem__

Which one is faster depends on the average word length and number of

But I doubt it would be significantly faster than an if statement with a

keyword, and the exit conditions will stand out in blocks with a lot of
if statements in them.

flatten in place-non recursive: 22.1817641628
recursive-no copies: 30.909762833
smallest recursive: 35.2678756658
non-recursive flatten in place without copies: 7.8551944451
A 300% improvement!!!
This shows the value of avoiding copies, recursion, and extra function
calls.

So lambda x,y: x+y should be read as: let x,y return x+y
I'm in the group that hadn't heard about lambda as a function before
Python even after > twenty years of computer tech experience. I
d the 'orif' would act just
like the 'elif'. Actually this is a completely differnt subject
reguarding flow testing verses value testing. Else and also would be
the coorisponding end pair, but it seemed nobody really liked that idea
when I suggested it a while back.

And from what I understand Python 2.x will still be maintained and
supported. It will probably be more
:
something = value
*And of course one less keyword!
Any drawbacks?

PS... not much sleep last night, so this may not be well thought out.

$ cat mymodule2.py
# define some temporary names
a, b, c, d, e, f = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
# do some work
result = a+b+c+d*e**f

a = b = c = d = e = f = None# possibly unbind names
This would work if None unbound names.
