Hi Tim I am not a LINQ expert just a LINQ user and (was a little envious why the langauge i fantasize doesnt have it (pardon my ignorance of python))
LINQ as far as i know allows you to query all sources using a consistent interface . You can query a message queue ,xml document ,array object or relational source by learning LINQ and even join them as illustrated below http://informationr.net/ir/13-2/TB0806.html If somebody can tutor me how i can do that in python that would be great (and mayeb satisfy my greed and leave me with a happy feeling that my langauge python can do it) regards Hrishy --- On Wed, 24/9/08, Tim Golden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Tim Golden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: Linq to Python > To: > Cc: python-list@python.org > Date: Wednesday, 24 September, 2008, 8:20 PM > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > sturlamolden: > >> No, because Python already has list comprehensions > and we don't need the XML buzzword.< > > > > LINQ is more than buzzwords.
