You can do exponents either with the ** operator or th
Exponents and remainder (modulus) are **(or ^) and % respectively. I.E.;
d = a ** b (exponent)
c = a % b (modulus)
There you are!

Nate,
I myself am a newer programmer with most of my experience in the use
of pygame, perhaps I could help point you in the right direction. First,
there is a lot of cool stuff over at the main pygame website, and a lot of

Some more info:
It's in pygame.
It's 2d.
I cannot find any python versions out there. Yes, there is a
graphical interface, and yes, it is a user-controlled game.
Thank you all for your help!

That's not too surprising. Text files use an end-of-file character combination.
You might be lucky and not encounter that set of bytes in your file or you
might be unlucky and find it, in which case the file gets truncated.
That's why you need the binary setting, to ensure you read the

The problem is that in your statement definition, you are not

For money, you should probably use the builtin module 'decimal' instead:

There's also the third party module 'mpmath' which provides arbitrary precision
floating point arithmetic.
