If you desperately want GMP, though, there's the gmpy module > (q.g.). No, I do not know that. Define desperate. Does Python support the extended Euclidean algorithm and other number theory functions? How fast does Python multiply? Not that the latter is particularly important, as C is built for speed. I've been fooling around. Ran dir(gmpy), and it does not show the full complement of GMP library functions, such as the various division functions. e.g. mpz_tdiv_qr. -- Michael Press -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
