I think automatic translation would be a very bad way of getting understanding of both. Translating from another language to Python usually leads to very un-Pythonic code - syntactically correct and working Python, but not 'real' Python. I assume that translating from Python to Perl will lead to something similarly un-Perlish. -- André Engels, andreeng...@gmail.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
