I believe it's also because None lacks any binary value at all, whereas - -99999999.99 or 0 have a value in binary. For example: if None < 0: print "hi" >>> hi if None > 0: print "hi" >>> But in human terms, None == 0 and None > -9999999.99. - -- People should read more. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/User:MithrandirAgain "All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. - From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king." -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJMWHwBAAoJEKo37V1xH7gTgvYH/j1j0fgKI5mlzIp4urxhh6Ki 49LVsZjVsISyD+NzvgV5b8hk0S9Ad+gpqaf8fBQJS36Ye1KtupA7W7CTr54roaK0 ZBN3o4XxPdRjxXeHnBUNi3bqjGMzDdIIFZbE/qKalxTj0ZYgtlCgnMiYXLEeeY5z L0dzfn/qoMr6PjAtdlB9yp5amHcUeRzDos3hp13flsAj9Vq/pHyJmlPazME/vE0f 381bMXP52ud71BGcm8gRWdDqhJOUdJ52NZeEk0fKcxHsRvscjt1nQmCRp4IMDtFl ws++tXcl0pY7KSAATb5dzzkhr/BJnKGb1JHRlQMMB0EEdtNOzJaDh63qbvSzTJI= =9jHw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
