Hello, Just joined ML after reading up on prothon and prototype-based programming. I'm a long time python user but I decided to join because this new language looks quite exciting. There is a PEP to add/replace long, int, and float, long with a single decimal type with bounded precision and floating point. http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0327.html Even though from a language implementation point of view it might be tough, I think that from a prothon user point of view, a single decimal type would be great idea - together with the . (what about complex type?) Also, the question of text / strings. Better to implement unicode from the start? (like java) ________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Messenger - Communicate instantly..."Ping" your friends today!
