Hm,

It seems my previous reply got lost.


if a*b > 0:
        print "same sign"
else
        print "different sign"

I am trying to figure out how to test if two numbers are of the same
sign (both positive or both negative).  I have tried

abs(x) / x == abs(y) / y

but that fails when one of the numbers is 0.  I'm sure that there is
an easy way to do this.  Any suggestions?

Thanks
