If I understand what you want, you could do something like class LatchButton: def __init__(self, address): self.value = 0 self.address = address def __call__(self): if not self.value: if bus.read_byte_data(self.address, GPIOB) > 0: self.value = 1 return self.value button1 = LatchButton(address1) button2 = LatchButton(address2) for i in range(10): print button1(), button2() time.sleep(3) -tkc -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
