Please try to give a complete program that illustrates the problem. For example, this program shows no problem on my box (Windows Python 2.4.3): """ import gmpy import random import operator NN = sum(map(operator.__mul__, [1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6])) for i in range(10): for j in range(10): print '%4d' % (gmpy.mpz(i)*gmpy.mpz(j)), print """ The output was: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 0 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 0 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 0 6 12 18 24 30 36 42 48 54 0 7 14 21 28 35 42 49 56 63 0 8 16 24 32 40 48 56 64 72 0 9 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81 > Am I correct that there is a conflict with > > import gmpy > import operator I don't see a problem of any kind, and there's no way to guess from the above what you did that mattered. It's hard to believe that merely importing any module (operator or otherwise) has any effect on gmpy. > Would reversing the import order help or should I just avoid > mixing them?
