Python works with numbers, but at the moment it has to display such a number it has to produce something that is printable. So it will build a string that can be used as a notation for that number, a numeral. And that is what will be displayed.
so a number is just a number but when this number needs to be displayed into a monitor, then the printed form of that number we choose to call it a numeral?
So, a numeral = a string representation of a number. Is this correct? -- What is now proved was at first only imagined! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
