Hi MRAB, Thanks. Learning a lot thanks to you guys.
I should have mentioned that the data is dynamic, in the sense that 'brucelee' could be 'jackiechan' , the number of named tuples - i.e., 'brucelee(…)', could change as well, the next time data is pulled in. The format of the data would however remain the same. I am using @Tim Chase's solution for now. Your solution will also work but I think I'll need to create a fn to pull out the " n " values as in: ">>> n = brucelee(x=123, y=321)" Thanks, Virendra -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
