I tried several times and the differences were almost always consistent. I put mylist1=mylist[1:] outside the time control. iter still seems a little bit faster. Running both programs several times (10000000 elements list) I only got iter being slower once! But, of course, most of the difference comes from the copy. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
