Reading some FAQ, I see that __str__ is meant for human eyes.
But it seems that:
class X(object):
def __str__(self):
return str
def __repr__(self):
return repr
x = X()
d = {0 : x}
print d
{0: repr}
So if __str__ is meant for human eyes, then why isn't print using it!

... how an object prints itself is up to that object and that object alone
If I wanted to implement a list-like class that doesn't show it's elements at
all when printed, but instead shows its length, I am free to do so.
For example:
hl = HiddenList(1,2,3)

what is the recommendation? Overload both __str__ and __repr__?
Either or both or neither,

BTW Neal, your posts aren't word wrapped. When I read your posts, I get
each paragraph as one extremely LONG line scrolling way out to the side.
