--- Begin Message ---Howdy,Do you know how to create instances of dictionaries, lists, integers, longs, etc without having to specify it in code...Instead of specifying:a={"bla":1}or ...a=[1,2,3]Is there another way??
The "new" module does not appear to create built-in types, or am I wrong.I've read something about "type objects", but I don't know how to instantiate them outside of specifying them as python syntax embedded in code (see examples above).Thank you for the insights and help.Bill.__________________________________________________
