The BDFL made that one of the very first Pronouncements of 3.0. ;-) >(So in Python 2.5 the second version can be made to mean the same thing >of the third). Can, yes. But should it? The whole point of adding the () option to classes was to ease the learning process for newbies who don't understand why classes have a different syntax from functions. Having class C(): pass behave differently from class C: pass would be of no benefit for that purpose. -- Aahz ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ "LL YR VWL R BLNG T S" -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
