If we allow that, then we necessarily need to allow: global x, y, z = 12, 13, 14 ... while I have also thought to myself 'it would be really nice to be able to assign to a global when I declare a value to be global', it has usually been a case of early optimization for me. I don't really know how I feel about either example above, I'd probably be +0. - Josiah _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
