mentioned I'm kind of old school (for a good meaning of the world "old"), and I really am. I was there when
Guido van rossum hadn't produced 1.1 of
Python and
still answered newbies in the USENET newsgroup.
However, I seem to remember that later on, after yet another silly question, Guido van Rossum himself answered with something like "You make lots of questions you should solve yourself", but have been unable to find it. Maybe it was direct email. BTW, that might explain the fact tha I stick to
Perl. Which, at that time, was into version 4.
