Help > is appreciated, thanks. It works because 0 tests false and because integer division yields integers... eventually you'll get something like 1/10 giving 0. It's not necessarily a good thing to rely on. For example if you try it after "from __future__ import division" - or in python 3 - you'll get a float as the result of the division and it won't test False. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
