What kind of problems make you hit the limit? Other than when you forget the base case, I mean. : It's no big deal to do your own unwinding of the recursion to a : loop, but the code is typically less clear. Sure. And you have to live with your less clear code when you maintain the system later. -- :-- Hans Georg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
