Be fair. It's more like 50% of the time. Let's not dogpile onto Bart. He asked a question, I answered it, we don't all need to sink the boot in as well. Nobody expects Bart to love Python, but if he wants to fit in here, in a Python group, he ought to either at least make an effort to understand the reasons Python is what it is (and not just idiocy and bloat) and appreciate it for what it is, not for what it isn't. Or at least avoid trying to lecture us on why we're doing it wrong. -- Steven D'Aprano "Ever since I learned about confirmation bias, I've been seeing it everywhere." -- Jon Ronson -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
