That seems wise to me, too, but the the explicit __init__ test in test_deque seems to argue otherwise. Maybe the test in error. Moreover, the behavior of deque.__init__ may actually contradict its doc string. >>> help(deque.__init__) Help on wrapper_descriptor: __init__(...) x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature -- Neil Cerutti A song fest was hell at the Methodist church Wednesday. --Church Bulletin Blooper -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
