I'm turning an integer into a string so I can make a list of separate chars, then turn those chars back into individual ints,
You don't actually need to convert to chars, you could use divmod to do it directly on the numbers: >>> digits = [] >>> root = 455 >>> while root > 0: ... root, n = divmod(root,10) ... digits.insert(0,n) ... >>> digits [4, 5, 5] But I suspect the str() method is slightly faster... -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
