Beware that this is probably only relevant if you have your numbers as strings, not as floats: py> 0.103 0.10299999999999999 But, assuming you have your numbers as strings, I would suggest looking at str.split() and len(). I'd give you an example, but this sounds kinda like a homework assignment. STeVe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
