There seems to be some confusion between two different subthreads here. BJörn Lindqvist seemed to be saying that instead of my suggested make_person(=name, =age, =phone, =location) as a substitute for make_person(name=name, age=age, phone=phone, location=location) it would be better to pass the arguments positionally. I was pointing out that you can't do this when the thing you're calling requires them to be passed by keyword. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
