Python 2.6 supports both "print x" and "print(x)", however I chose the former approach in my tutorial because it's a bit simpler and I can postpone explaining functions a bit. I plan to show that "print(x)" also works, but after the lesson on functions.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div>Other than that (by looking at your code) I see that this is an awesome program! <img src="cid:330@goomoji.gmail" style="margin: 0px 0.2ex; vertical-align: middle;" goomoji="330"></div> </blockquote><div><br>Glad to hear it.
