Apologies for my numerous offenses to protocol, and gratitude for the
suggestions all around.And yet... as to the notion of a tuple
existing in some non-Platonic sense, I suspect I will have carry my
confusion away in order to dispel it by further reading.
"Wrong on both counts?" Hey, you win! I WAS wrong. But if it is not a
tuple that is in the file, it would be helpful to know what it is.
Presumably, a string representing a tuple. And as to the matter of
representation, I cant immediately see how anything in a script is
anything other than a representation of some kind, hence the
distinction between representamen and object does no work for me.
Yes, I should have been clearer as to what I was trying to achieve,
but I underestimated the good will of this community(in most cases)and
their willingness to help. For which, as I said, much thanks.
