No, that would be massively confusing, since := is an assignment operator in some languages, notably Pascal. The => is meant to suggest a mapping, and it resembles notation used in mathematics and some functional languages to denote a function. For example, Haskell, if I remember rightly, would write this as \(x, y) -> x + y -- 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
