There may be more than one way to have it get a zero value. But in
languages like Python readability and clarity are valued, and clearly
var = 0
is the clearest way to do it, although
var = var^var
comes to mind, *grin*

Whether thats 'kewl' depends on your viewpoint.

Yes Johan, I did! Both the report and sort suggestions worked!

Ah, memory lane time again :-)
Oh, you had advanced BASIC - it allowed nested for loops! :-)
My first BASIC only allowed for loops that could be written in a single
line...Anything more complex you had to call a subroutine with GOSUB.

You almost have it. Do this instead.
d = {'first':[]}
d['first'].append("string")
Append acts on the list, so assignment is unnecessary.

All,
I have a dictionary say:
d = {'first':[]}
I am going through another list and depending on whats going on,
I want to add to the empty list. I have tried the following to noavail.
d['first'] = d['first'].append("string")
I would think this would result in the dictionary key first's empty list

The first makes p point at the same list as a.
The second makes p point at a *copy* of the list pointed to by a.
You will see the difference if you try to modify the lists after assignment.

Oooh... that's a gotcha. Shi Mu - did you understand that? There is a
crucial difference as Gregor pointed out, that I missed, and I do
apologise.

But in fact there is a difference. I'll show you:

>>> id(a)

42 is x percent of 250.
(is / of) = (x / 100)
one of those formulas from school I will always remember.
(42 / 250) = (x / 100.0)
250x = 4200.0
x = 4200.0 / 250
x = 16.8%
Hi Shi,
For what you're doing, nothing at all.
When you use a colon, slice syntax, it defaults to [start:end] so p =
a[:] is the same as
p = a[0:len(a)]
