Ok, if I understand this correctly counts.iteritems() creates a tuple (name, count) and this is passed to operator.itemgetter() which take the second value to sort the list. Previously I used a function with cmp to sort datetime.date objects but this works way better :-) Thanks Sander _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
