What? I mean...what are you even talking about? Assignments are to "names" - names are not Python objects and it is not something that can be returned from a function call. If you are meaning mathematical equation like functionality, I recommend you to try "SymPy" - the Library for symbolic mathematics. I can't make sense of what you want to perform by "assigning to a function call", and given the time without a reply to this e-mail, I think I am not the only one there. js -><- > > _______________________________________________ > 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/jsbueno%40python.org.br _______________________________________________ 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
