That prints exactly what I expect it to. The first if prints nothing, because you're testing whether a string is contained in a sequence of ints. That will always be false. The second if prints those characters from name that happen to be in the string "range(10)". That's the "1" and the "a". Apparently it doesn't print what *you* expect, which is why you need to make your expectation clear and not assume that we will just read your mind and immediately understand what you expect the code to do. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
