Are you after elegance? Efficiency? Brevity?
Actually, the reason I ask is because I think a lot of things can be done using slices and its support for negative indexes. Basically putting constants in the slices (as opposed to variables like len(x), etc... which depend upon the variable name). So, was just trying to cogitate on whether append can be implemented that way or not. Regards, -Dhruv. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
