pop(1)?
Anyway if would be simpler and almost certainly faster to not bother
checking before the pop:
def pop(self):
try:
return self.__heap.pop()
except IndexError:
raise InnerInterpreterError, "stack underflow"
and if performance mattered the OP might even consider pre-binding the pop
method in __init__:
self.__pop = self.__heap.pop
but that's probably premature optimisation.

Me too. It's a repost of something from 2004. Bizarre.
