It would seem, then, that you haven't followed the exercises in the Python tutorial <URL:http://docs.python.org/tut/> very thoroughly. Please work your way through the whole tutorial, with the document and an interactive Python prompt side by side. Run each exercise, read the accompanying text, experiment until you understand what it does; then move onto the next, and so on. This will give you a grounding in the fundamentals of the language that will be of great assistance to you, and to us. -- \ "It's not what you pay a man, but what he costs you that | `\ counts." -- Will Rogers | _o__) | Ben Finney -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
