Py_True, of course, *is* 1. There is no proper boolean type.
Seeing you added emphasis on the *is*, I assume you meant *is* :)
true=(1==1) true is 1 0
Py_True == 1, but is *not* 1
Py_True is a singleton and all 1 integers in Python are cached and shared, so we end up having exactly two different objects for the number 1 in Python: Py_True and 1 (or 3-2 or 4/4 or ...). -- Marc-Andre Lemburg CEO eGenix.com Software GmbH ______________________________________________________________________ Consulting & Company: http://www.egenix.com/ Python Software: http://www.lemburg.com/python/
