There is no need to optimise python, it is fast enough. For me every advantage of Python is that I can do what I like with it, when I like with it, and I'm not stuck in the dreadful straight jacket of the statically typed languages. If someone wants to make it faster I'm not going to complain, but your obsession with speed is going to have me dying of laughter if this goes on much longer. > > Your dreadful piece of code >> published earlier today around a switch statement summed it up. > > Was that in Python? It was /supposed/ to be dreadful. I was making a > case for it to be supported directly. You mean the huge great long list of hard coded function calls. They are directly supported. So is the loop. Anything wrong with the Paul Rubin response? And as my earlier link showed you often simply don't need a switch statement in an OO language. Not much point providing something, much worse optimising it, if it isn't needed in the first place? > > > The RUE kept stating that he was an expert in unicode, but never once > > provided a single shred of evidence to support his claim.

Any establised member of this community, or any other community for that matter, will always publish, unless, like the RUE, they've got something to hide. So you're just a chicken. Where do you buy the paint from for the streaks down your back? Just in case you can't guess it is yellow. I'll state the colour just in case your knowledge of colours is the same as your so called knowledge of computing, something of which I'm far from persuaded, on the grounds that speed simply is not the sole criteria for a language. -- My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask what you can do for our language.
