If all you need is the result here's simpler and more efficient code: from random import randrange sum = 100 * randrange(128) print "Sum is ", sum And the same in perl: my $sum = 100 * int(rand(128)); print "Sum is $sum\n"; If you really want compare performance then look at Computer Language Benchmarks Game: http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/gp4/benchmark.php?test=all&lang=python&lang2=perl -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
