I don't know about oct(), but I found hex() to be quite useful the other day when I was using the interactive interpreter to to some hex calculations. It would have been quite tedious having to say "%x".format(_) or some such all the time to see the results in hex. An alternative might be to have some variable that can be set to control the format of numbers printed by the interactive shell. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
