Sorry, another simple question

Joseph, do you want to do something like this?

    mylist = MyList()

    for element in mylist:
      ...

Or something like this:

    mylist = MyList()

    print mylist[5:10]

If the former, __getitem__ is the method you need.  It's called with
successively increasing index values in the for loop until an IndexError
exception is triggered (IIRC):

If the latter, look at __getslice__:
