What is the easiest way to get the first number as boolean? divmod(99.6, 30.1) Or do I have to say: flote, rem=divmod(99.6, 30.1) bool(flote) -- Gnarlie

divmod returns a 2-tuple:
>>> divmod(99.6,30.1)
(3.0, 9.2999999999999901)
Therefore, you can subscript the return value to get either
element:
>>> divmod(99.6,30.1)[0]
3.0
Thus, you can call bool() on the subscripted value to convert
this to True-if-not-zero False-if-zero:
>>> bool(divmod(99.6,30.1)[0])
True

divmod returns a tuple, so:
bool(divmod(99.6, 30.1)[0])
