The post you're criticising specifically gave a definition for cdr that had the semantics he wanted. "where cdr(s) is conveniently defined as s + 1." (car can be defined as s[0]). The real difference is the lack of error checking and the lack of cons. -- Devin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
