I'd like to point out it should be obvious, at least as far as going to http://docs.python.org and typing "__iadd__" into the Search field in the upper right should be an obvious first step... > For reference, you may want to check out the index of the language > reference manual. > > http://www.python.org/doc/2.4.2/ref/genindex.html That one is the second hit in those results... (It does seem to require reading a few of those pages to learn enough to answer the original question. To be fair, I didn't find (in a few minutes) any page that explicitly states what [EMAIL PROTECTED] said, about += falling back to __add__ if __iadd__ is not defined, though I didn't try searching for it directly.) -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
