Is pylab part of matplotlib? I always thought it was the other way around. I have a similar view of numpy as part of scipy. Maybe I'm confused on the dependencies. I find it confusing in the examples sometimes when the "bigger" package is imported (e.g. scipy) and then a "subpackage" is also imported. Like this: from scipi import * from scipi import numpy I know I've seen stuff like that, but I don't get it. The dependencies are confusing to me. I did a search of the tutorial on 'import' but didn't find the answer. -- Lou Pecora (my views are my own) REMOVE THIS to email me. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
