... or if you prefer the functional approach (using map)...

roundToInt = lambda z : int(z+0.5)
Topamax = map( roundToInt, map( float, map(str, Topamax) ) )

(Python also has a built-in round() function, but this returns floats, not
ints - if that is okay, then just delete the lambda definition, and replace
roundToInt with round.)
