hmmm int() does miss some stuff:
>>> 1E+1 10.0 >>> int("1E+1") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '1E+1' I wonder how you parse this? I honestly thought until right now int() would understand that and wanted to show that case as ease of use, I was wrong, so how do you actually cast this type of input to an integer? thanks martin -- http://tumblr.marcher.name https://twitter.com/MartinMarcher http://www.xing.com/profile/Martin_Marcher http://www.linkedin.com/in/martinmarcher You are not free to read this message, by doing so, you have violated my licence and are required to urinate publicly.
