Hi Skip, Okay, I actually have those pages up in my browser. I found the string methods: http://docs.python.org/lib/string-methods.html
But I am having trouble finding the same information for lists... Thanks I will look into it some more, Lincoln >>> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 02/27/07 3:28 PM >>> lincoln> strings have methods like string.count("f") returns 1. What lincoln> methods do lists have? Is it a similar class to string? Similar in some ways, different in others. Some things to play with: 1. At an interpreter prompt, execute: help("") help([]) 2. Check the relevant sections of the tutorial: http://docs.python.org/dev/tut/node5.html#SECTION005120000000000000000 http://docs.python.org/dev/tut/node5.html#SECTION005140000000000000000 Two significant differences: 1. Strings are immutable. 2. Lists can contain any kind of object, not just characters. Skip -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
