This, of course is a rather dirty, implementation (and probably version) specific hack, but I can /calculate/ the sequence, using just one line: >>> print " ".join(str(i) for i in [x if x<2 else >>> (locals()['_[1]'][-1]+locals()['_[1]'][-2]) for x in xrange(20)]) 0 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89 144 233 377 610 987 1597 2584 4181 (CPython 2.6, on osx10.6) It's slightly more typing than the plain string, but extend it to about 30 entries, and I think I win? Note to OP: don't _ever_ do it this way in a serious project. -- Rich "Roadie Rich" Lovely There are 10 types of people in the world: those who know binary, those who do not, and those who are off by one. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
