Holy unnecessarily complicated code Batman! This is much simpler: [steve@ando ~]$ python -m timeit -s "x = None" "if x is None: pass" 10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.0738 usec per loop [steve@ando ~]$ python -m timeit -s "x = True" "if x is None: pass" 10000000 loops, best of 3: 0.0799 usec per loop The difference is too small to be significant. If I run the same tests multiple times, the winner could easily change. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
