I only ask becuase I am starting off with python and I want to learn everything in basic and advanced programming with python itself...So any advice and suggestions would be more than welcome. > Thanks!! > As others have said you can do nearly anything in any of those languages. But you can expect to learn and use many over time. I've used about 35 professionally, and a few more for fun. I've done substantial work in machine language and also in microcode. Sometimes I had to write the assembler, simulator, and debugger while the actual machine was being designed. Was python an appropriate language to write add and subtract in? Nope. -- DaveA nr ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://www.piaohong.tk/newsgroup
