Probably easy - but can't seem to find "the solution" to rotating content of a list (in one statement - competition with a lisp-guru !). For a string I do the following to Rotate Right: s = "abc" s[1:]+s[0] >> s = "bca" which works correctly. Tried the following for list, does not seem to work. a = [1,2,3] a[1:].append(a[0]) Nikolai
