This isn't valid Python in any version that I'm aware of. Where did you see it? It wouldn't make a lot of sense anyway, since by analogy with list.reverse you'd expect it to reverse the given string in place. But that's not possible in Python, because strings are immutable. Maybe you're looking for something like: >>> reversed("abc") <reversed object at 0x100582810> which works in versions of Python >= 2.4. > import numpy For this to work, you need to have numpy installed. numpy is a third- party package that isn't part of the standard Python distribution; for more information, see: http://numpy.scipy.org/ The best method for installing numpy would depend on your system, and on where you got Python from. On OS X, the system Python comes with numpy as standard, for example. On Linux, there's probably a python26- numpy package (or something with a similar name) that you can install. On Windows: no idea. :) Mark -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
