So if you adopt the word class to mean a type (or composite type), as in python, what word would you use for a class of types (as in haskell or ada)? I think there are too many meanings and too few words ... That's why some languages support overloading. I am afraid we just need to cope with it, overloading I mean. -- :-- Hans Georg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
