The point is that they're only "very simple" if you can write them using access to an outer scope. Without that ability, they become less simple, less efficient, more convoluted, harder to follow, etc. Also I don't buy the argument that something has to be useful for big, complicated things in order to be worth having in the language. -- 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
