Subject: 0 == False but [] != False?
This is a slightly naive question, but I know that 0 can be used to
represent False. So >>> 0 == False True But, I know I can use [] to represent False as in >>> if not []: print 'empty' ... empty But then doing the following gives a surprising (to me!) result >>> [] == False False Could anybody point out why this is the case?
