It's a compiler problem: >>> dis.dis(compile("mine[...] = 1", '', 'single')) 1 0 LOAD_CONST 0 (1) 3 LOAD_NAME 0 (mine) 6 LOAD_CONST 1 (Ellipsis) 9 LOAD_CONST 2 (None) 12 RETURN_VALUE Cheers, mwh -- 6. The code definitely is not portable - it will produce incorrect results if run from the surface of Mars. -- James Bonfield, http://www.ioccc.org/2000/rince.hint _______________________________________________ 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
