Not trying to push more LISP into python or anything, but of course we could converge your method and the switch statement elegantly if only we could put whole suites into lamdbas rather than just single expressions :-) {"case1": lamdba : some-suite-lambda... , "case2": lambda : some-other-suite... }[switch-condition-expression]() Nicko _______________________________________________ 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
