I hope not!

Kent,
That result was gotten using Ulipad. Thought I'd try it at my command
line (several times, of course--I've reported what seemed to be
representative data).
Using command line:
0.673447044247
0.511676204657
Using IDLE:
0.845213567646
0.685519807685
Using Wing Pro (executing with Alt+F5)
0.940486290855
0.998467123615
Is it possible that the timeit module should be used only at the command line?
Dick
