That should be: 0 <= start <= length and 0 <= stop <= length (step > 0), and length-1 >= start >= -1, length-1 >= stop >= -1 (step < 0); it's not guaranteed that start <= stop always holds in the first case, or that start >= stop in the second. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3004> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
