It's built around string lookup. obj.stuff() - look up what object is associated with string 'stuff', get the object, see how it can be called, call it. -- Ville Vainio http://tinyurl.com/2prnb -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

There is no single doc other that the source, but lots of bits and pieces scattered thru clp archives. The CPython interpreter, tokenizes, parses, and compiles Python to CPython bytecode. The library manual chapter on the dis module defines the stack-based CPython virtual machine. The bytecode is interpreted in a loop with a giant switch (ceval.c). Python objects have a common header and a type-specific value section. For builtin type objects, the value section is a standard set of slots for functions corresponding to the various operators and builtins. For more, see the source or persistently search Google's archive for the group. Terry J. Reedy -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Thanks, emre Hi, I've been trying to look that up as well, in CoRR, ACM digital library but not much luck. I've got only peripheral hits using python virtual machine as search term. If you are looking for something at the level of python language specification and python virtual machine specification, I am unable to find anything yet. Please tell me if you managed to find something useful. Cheers Maurice -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
