You certainly could in C++ but I'm less sure about C. You certainly couldn't do that in C prior to ANSI C (in 1991/2?). However I don't think the C++ bits got incorporated into C until the C update in '99. However that didn't stop some compilers supporting them. For example the C++ // comment style was supported by most ANSI compilers even though it wasn't in the original ANSI standard. > I am rapidly veering off topic. Me too :-) Alan G. Who hasn't used vanilla C in anger for at least 10 years! (And C++ for 4 or 5...) _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
