I presume you are referring to the type/class distinction? That is, in Python 1.5 (for example), the *instance* 23 was an instance of the *type* int but not of any class, as classes (created with the "class" keyword) were distinct from types. If you mean something else, can you explain please? -- Steve -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
