["Moore, Paul"] It's PEP 201, and that contains a statement that Guido pronounced explicitly on 0-arg zip producing an exception. Sadly, there's no rationale given (but Guido doesn't need one :-)) After Guido gets settled in, I'll see if the California air has changed his thinking. If it hasn't, I'll at least get the rationale documented. Raymond Hettinger
