I haven't seen any convincing argument showing that this feature is useful or that the code becomes more readable when this feature is used. Without such arguments it doesn't matter whether you can come up with unambiguous syntax or anything else. Personally, I believe that all code involving reduce() can be made more readable by removing the reduce() call and writing an explicit loop. Your attempts seem to confirm that alternatives aren't any better. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
