Well enough Perl vs Python. The thing is, that when writing in another

the language in attempt to make it work like another language you are

tutorials/books too.
P.S. if you know Perl then try:

a bug in min/max perhaps :-)?
I am definitely NOT a floating point expert, but I did find this:

P.S. What platform /Compiler are you using for Python?

her bottlenecks in your application?
4) Is this the routine whose smallest % speed-up would give the

n reminded of good software practice memes in
answers and think its part of what makes c.l.p. a rewarding
experience. It may be hubris to think that a random reader might read
my post and then follow my points before making a routine faster; but
