I guess I'm just surprised to find something that's simple and idiomatic in C but doesn't translate to anything equally simple in Python. Have you looked at Paul Graham's Accumulator Generator page? Paul has an axe to grind; he want to prove that Lisp is the only worthy language, so it's kind of a rigged example. But it's still worth thinking about why some things aren't natural in Python. http://www.paulgraham.com/accgen.html He has more on writing an accumulator generator in Python on this page. (It's long. Search for "Because Python".) http://www.paulgraham.com/icad.html -- Bob Miller K<bob> kbobsoft software consulting http://kbobsoft.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Eug-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
