Dunno about the US but in the UK we generally just hand over the total change as indicated on the till nowadays! :-) But in days of yore it was done thusly: 5.77 and 3(cents) is 5.80 and 20 (cents) is 6 and 4 (dollars) is 10. Except of course we use pounds and pence! Alan G. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
