The calculation looks like this A = 0.35 T = 0.30 C = 0.25 G = 0.10 and then I basically continually multiply those numbers together. I need to do it like 200,000+ times but that's nuts. I can't even do it 1000 times or the number rounds off to 0.0. I tried taking the inverse of these numbers as I go but then it just shoots up to "inf". -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
