For me to think (list/tuple).get() was needed would be if lots of folk either cast their lists to dicts or made their own list-dict class to solve that problem.
The easier solution would be to provide list.get ;-)
Exactly -- I think that was the point -- if there is a lot of custom code out there essentially adding a get() to a list -- then that would indicate that is is broadly useful. For my part, I think casting a list to a dict is often the RIGHT way to address these issues. -CHB -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chris.Barker@noaa.gov
