A darn good candidate, I'd say. I'm biased because I once took quite a while to figure out that importing the math module's 'pow' was how I broke my code. The operator module offers pow(). Is there any good reason for pow() as a built-in? -- --Bryan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
