That's something I've often heard and I don't get it. Somehow I don't understand how C variables are not like python bindings (the differences being that C variables are statically typed and completely disappear at run-time; are these differences important enough to warrant such a shift in terminology ? (yes there are some other differences, but then the question is asked in a context of pedagogy, where the audience is introduced to the basics)) I mean : aren't C variables also bindings from names to objects ? Or what ? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
