Of course I had. If somebody had asked me, I probably would have guessed that there was some sort of special case in the parser for function calls. I didn't say my mental model was a good model, but it was the only one I had. I have no doubt that there are others out there who are confused about the role of commas. -- Steven _______________________________________________ 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
