Hi, You are probably confusing Dynamic typing with Weak typing. Python is both dynamically and strongly typed. Perl is both dynamically and weakly typed. It is Perls weak typing that allows automatic conversion between dissimilar types. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_system - Paddy. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
