There seem to be many ways to spell this, all quite similar. And
different versions of Python have different things to say about it.
Current CVS says:
>>> a = range(12)
>>> t0,t1 = a,slice(2, 9)
>>> t0[t1] = t0[t1] + [666]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ValueError: attempt to assign list of size 8 to extended slice of
size 7
I suspect this is a bug, since I didn't ask for an extended slice.
>>> a[2:9] = a[2:9] + [666]
>>> a
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 666, 9, 10, 11]
