...

Off the top of my head, most classes I create have ...

__init__ 3-5 other methods 3-5 instance attributes

Hmm - that would only be 3-5 instance __dict__ entries, with 4-6 class __dict__ entries, correct?

I was forgetting that methods are put into the instance __dict__.

No, they're not.

Bah - I meant to say __class__.__dict__ - if you look at the numbers above they add up that way.

...

Bah - it's too late. It's the end of the day, and I've barely managed to get 2 hours real work done.

That might explain your recent goofs. :-)

See above ;) Well, it's a whole new day ... I've got an 8am phone call to the US (10 minutes away) ... maybe I can do better today ... Tim Delaney
