As Karen pointed out, you should consider a phone number to be a string, not an integer. Integers are there to do mathematical operations on, which I can't imagine you requiring for a phone number (what's the relevance of my phone no. + 5?). Also anything that you would want to do with a phone number would be attained more naturally through string methods. Say you wanted to retrieve the last 4 digits - using phone_str[-4:] makes more sense than phone_int % 10000.
Don't be fooled by the fact that that phone numbers have numerals in them - phone "numbers" could well have used alphabetical characters, or colors, or anything else that could map to a series of frequencies. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
