See if this makes any more sense: "I just wanted to know how to implement strict type checking of all function parameters in Python. I was not interested in philosophical discussion of why one should or should not implement it, whether that programming model makes sense, instead using duck typing, etc. etc." People often come to this list thinking they know exactly how something should be done, based on preconceptions formed in a different context, and believing all they need is our help in doing it. We have a long and cherished history of asking "why do you want to do that?" and "what are you actually trying to achieve?" in the interest of finding a better approach to address the actual need. I don't see this thread as being any different. -- \ "Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to | `\ another, 'What! You too? I thought I was the only one!'" -- | _o__) C.S.
