I had a quick glance through the code. Not too many divisions and most of them seemd to already be forcing float division by constructs such as mutiplying by 1.0 (which I assume isn't strictly neccessary as long as / and // are used correctly. It seemed a lot of floats were used in the 2.5 code as I saw such stuff as int(difference), so I really don't know why .mpz would be a problem since they are integers also and a Python int ought to be the same thing when coerced to a float (at least in the range used by Turtle graphics. > > Best regards, > Gregor -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
