Hey all:

I want to convert strings (ex. '3', '32') to strings with left padded
zeroes (ex. '003', '032')

In Python 2.4 you can use rjust with the optional fill argument: >>> '3'.rjust(3, '0') '003'

In earlier versions you can define your own:
 >>> def rjust(s, l, c):
 ...   return ( c*l + s )[-l:]
 ...
 >>> rjust('3', 3, '0')
'003'
 >>> rjust('32', 3, '0')
'032'
