Greg Wilson: I second the motion. ... Yup. Being able to iterate directly over a dictionary's keys w/out listifying will make things more efficient, as Fri, 20 Apr 2001 09:27:32 GMT Thomas Wouters http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/python-iter/message/204 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/python-iter/message/204 ... The sentinel method is for use with existing functions, that return a sentinel value (like "" or None or whatever.)

This is available for inspection through CVS: just Wed, 28 Mar 2001 19:57:58 GMT Greg Wilson http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/python-iter/message/200 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/python-iter/message/200 Hi, folks. I'll be shutting down this list at the end of this week.
