New submission from Tom <t...@littlemonster.co.uk>: I hope the title of this makes sense. I've been out of things for a long time.
Going through the Python tutorial (http://docs.python.org/tutorial/introduction.html) I departed from the script to try something. It gave neither of the results I had thought it might. >>> (0+1j)*(0+1j).imag 1j >>> (0+1j)*(0+1j).real 0j >>> a=(0+1j)*(0+1j) >>> a.imag 0.0 >>> a.real -1.0 >>> This being my first crack at this language, I may have missed something that is obvious to the more experienced. In my naivety, I thought that slicing the result of a calculation should work - why not? It should have the same structure as that pointed to by a variable. So I'll leave this for either somebody with the patience to put me straight or somebody to fix.
