for namespaces read this http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/pytut/tut_68.html import math creates new namespace "math" for names in that module, so you can acess them by prefixing them with "math", like math.sqrt(9). from math import * imports all names to your local scope, so you do not have to prefix them, sqrt(9) -- Tõnis -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
