That would look like a good guess to me: $ python Python 2.4.1 (#2, May 5 2005, 11:32:06) [GCC 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-12)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> round(0.0225, 3) 0.023 >>> "%.3f" % round(0.0225, 3) '0.023' >>> Is that python2.4 of yours from the python2.4 package or one you compiled up yourself? -- \S -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://www.chaos.org.uk/~sion/ ___ | "Frankly I have no feelings towards penguins one way or the other" \X/ | -- Arthur C.
