Erm, yes, lots of ways, there are probably further constraints on the problem, such as the size of the integers, how the lists are supposed to be distributed, etc. Can you be more specific? Is this for an application? If it's a homework problem, that's fine, but it's better in that case for respondents to suggest hints rather than full solutions. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
