The set of integer numbers usually comprises all whole numbers from -infinity to +infinity except the bounds (as these are no numbers). Whole _positive only_ numbers make up the set of "natural numbers", starting at one (1) and leaving off zero, denoted by "IN" sometimes. The union of "IN" and [0] is sometimes used and called "IN0" or so. (The "IN" should denote a capital letter "N" with a thicker upstroke.) Of course, these are _conventions_ only, everyone is free to use the names differently or use different names for the same things. -- -- (Weitergabe von Adressdaten, Telefonnummern u.ä. ohne Zustimmung nicht gestattet, ebenso Zusendung von Werbung oder ähnlichem) ----------------------------------------------------------- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, S.
