You mean you haven't dealt with this subject yet... But what I like about Pythons modulo solution is that I can use it to right and left shift in lists or tuples, and I will link to the first element when I right shift past the last element and link to the last element when I left shift past the first element. In other words I can consider the last as a chain where the last and the first element are connected. This I find useful in surprisingly many situations. It's uised for, what it's used for, until you know the full lower level implementation/parsing of objects like immutables(tuples), and mutables(lists,dicts,strings,etc >> >> > Certainly, but you've never had to do that with lists or tuples having > negative lengths. It's a negative modulus that I'm complaining about. Can you show some example code here? -- Best Regards, David Hutto CEO: http://www.hitwebdevelopment.com _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
