I'm sure my first pass will be flawed, but here goes: http://docs.python.org/lib/typesmapping.html: to footnote (3), add phrase "which may depend on the memory location of the keys" to get: Keys and values are listed in an arbitrary order, which may depend on the memory location of the keys. This order is non-random, varies across Python implementations, and depends on the dictionary's history of insertions and deletions. http://docs.python.org/lib/types-set.html: append a new sentence to 2nd paragraph Iteration over a set returns elements in an arbitrary order, which may depend on the memory location of the elements. fwiw, Alan Isaac -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
