I read it. I also wasn't sure if map returns a special iterable like dict.keys() or a list so I tried it before I wrote my posting: Python 3.0x (p3yk:56022, Jun 18 2007, 21:10:13) [GCC 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> map(str, range(5)) ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4'] >>> type(map(str, range(5))) <type 'list'> It looks like an ordinary list to me.
