Hello.

This mailing list is to work on developing Python (adding new features to Python itself and fixing bugs); if you're having problems learning, understanding or using Python, please find another forum. Probably python-list/comp.lang.python mailing list/news group is the best place; there are Python developers who participate in it; you may get a faster, and probably more complete, answer there. See http://www.python.org/community/ for other lists/news groups/fora. Thank you for understanding. Oleg, lately I have the feeling you're getting too automatic with this template response. The OP didn't ask how to reverse a list in Python, he was trying to build Python itself (on Windows, no less), which suggests that he may be trying to work on Python. Or maybe he isn't, but let's grant him the benefit of the doubt. If python-dev was overwhelmed with such posts, then perhaps we'd have to think about solving the problem; but there is no problem.

Being kind to newbies is an important part of meaningful participation in an open source project.
