When you say function, exactly what are you referring to? Because really all a function *is* is a set of statements that takes input* does something* gives output* *optional For instance, in PHP, include('header.php') is a function that works similar to the few lines of code I wrote earlier. the input to the include function is the filename, the process or "does something" is it opens the file, and the output is returning it into the php file. -Wayne _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
