I use Python lambda quite a bit, and I don't understand the recent noise about problems with it, and its removal. I don't have a problem with lambdas. My personal gripe is this. I think the core language, as of 2.3 or 2.4 is very good, has more features than most people will ever use, and they (Guido, et al.) can stop tinkering with it now and concentrate more on the standard libraries. -- -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Keith Dart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> public key: ID: F3D288E4 ===================================================================== -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
