Hi Gabriel - thanks! For example all goniometric functions are missing. Or the log(x, base). Or rand(). Sure I can spend time trying to put it all together but I thought somebody would have done that already. It seems though that the codes that are out there are not ready - every one of the modules i mentioned above has some issues. Maybe I can put bits and pieces together, but if anyone knows of a well proven module (as is), I would feel much safer using that (again I am not a mathematician and poking into these algorithms makes me feel like trying to fix an automatic transmission). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
