The traditional name is "Bunch". Nineteen years ago, Alex Martelli's recipe for Bunch was published in the Python Cookbook. You can still find the recipe here: https://code.activestate.com/recipes/52308-the-simple-but-handy-collector-of-a-bunch-of-named/ Another common name is "Bag", although I've also seen that used as a name for a multiset. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/VUKQYOMLQ4MLDOTOCA4DJDHJ4QREPDSL/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
