[Mart Sõmermaa] > To provide total ordering without __cmp__ one has to implement all of > __lt__, __gt__, __le__, __ge__, __eq__ and __ne__. However, in all > but a few cases it suffices only to provide a "real" implementation for > e.g. __lt__ and define all the other methods in terms of it as follows: FWIW, I'm working on a solution for the problem using class decorators. The idea is that it would scan a class and fill-in missing methods based on the ones already there. That way, any one of the four ordering relations can be provided as a starting point and we won't have to annoint one like __lt__ as the one true underlying method. When it's ready, I'll bring it to python-dev for discussion. Raymond
