If you're after parallels, there's BASIC, which also didn't have a character type, and didn't try to pretend that strings were arrays of anything. The equivalent of s[i] would be mid$(s, i, 1), which is more akin to a slice than an indexing operation. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
