The dictionary solution someone suggested is probably the best one.
I have a question, though: why do you need a function with more than
255 parameters? (Not a rhetorical question - if you say you do, I'm
prepared to take your word for it - but I'd be fascinated to know why,
it's the first time I've ever heard of one with more than a dozen or
so.)
