Oups, I was too fast to read what was written. I though you only changed one of the terms ( str -> repr ). You'll note that repr and str produce the exact same result for complex. And also, I'm not sure using eval anywhere is a good idea so it probably doesn't help for what the OP wants to do. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
