[...] I thought of this. If I can, for example, implement __add__ for the stats, I can say something like consolidated_stats = sum(get_stats(), Stats()) My only objection was if the consolidation is not trivial or depends on the time of sampling, then it might be complex, if not impossible. Still, this seems like the neatest way to do it. -- Cordially, Noufal http://nibrahim.net.in _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
