But why not use groupby()? That seems much clearer to me: In [1]: from itertools import groupby In [3]: x=[1,1,1,3,2,2,2,2,4,4] In [4]: [ k for k, v in groupby(x) ] Out[4]: [1, 3, 2, 4] In [5]: x=[1,1,1,3,2,2,2,4,4,2,2] In [6]: [ k for k, v in groupby(x) ] Out[6]: [1, 3, 2, 4, 2] Kent _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
