For example: >>> def add(x, y): ... return x + y ... >>> def mul(x, y): ... return x * y ... >>> def sum_of_squares(x, y): ... return add(mul(x, x), mul(y, y)) ... >>> sum_of_squares(3, 4) 25 OP: If that addresses your question I suggest that you work through some introductory text about python. The python wiki has a few suggestions, see http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
