This is OK: >>> a = True >>> type(a) <type 'bool'> >>> a == 1 True >>> not a False >>> (not a) == 0 True >>> a*0.5 0.5 >>> a*a 1 >>> type(a) <type 'bool'> But this is not nice: >>> type(a) <type 'bool'> >>> a True >>> a = 0 >>> type(a) <type 'int'> I mean, being "a" a boolean variable, it works as if it was a number, but every time I want to update the value of "a", I must put "False" for 0 and "True" for 1, or it will change into an integer variable. So, maybe I can adapt the definition of "bool" type, I don't know... Anyway, I want to manage 0's and 1's, not "Falses" and "Trues". -- Vicent
