Writing x*x instead of x**2 is obsolete, but it will never go away. Writing apply(func, args) instead of func(*args) is deprecated. It has gone away. Obsolete is a value judgment you are welcome to ignore. Deprecation is a formal process that warns you that your code *will* break in the future. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
