There wouldn't be any walls of underscores, because y = x.next() would become y = next(x) The only time you would need to write underscores is when defining a __next__ method. That would be no worse than defining an __init__ or any other special method, and has the advantage that it clearly marks the method as being special. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
