Argggh. Having two (or more!) ways to do it, would mean that every time I read somebody else's code, I would have to figure out which flavor they are using before I could understand what their code meant. That would be evil. What would actually be cool is if Python were to support the normal math notation for open or closed intervals. Any of the following would make sense: foo = bar (1, 2) foo = bar (1, 2] foo = bar [1, 2) foo = bar [1, 2] That would certainly solve this particular problem, but the cost to the rest of the language syntax would be rather high :-) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
