How do I get a pointer in pure Python code (no ctypes)? I tried both Pascal and C syntax (^x and *x), but both give syntax errors. For that matter, how do I get a pointer in Java code? If Python doesn't have pointers, then why are you talking about Python passing pointers? It's a vacuous truth, like saying that Python passes dinosaurs by name. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
