< snip > I am also working my way slowly through this book which I find quite challenging. What I am thinking about at the moment is how to program for the computer to guess the number which I select. I know it can be done but I suspect it requires an approach which I have not yet learnt. I would welcome suggestions on the best way to approach this problem. Norman -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
