In fact, this strict but dynamic type checking is quite painful to work with, especially the new decimal class. I can do a : decimal + int but not decimal + float But then when I use some built-in math functions, it can convert decimal to float and return a float which then cannot be operate with another decimal. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
