Hi comprookie

First, thank for your code submissions.
I've checked out a couple of your solutions that you have
made comments on.

5-8).
I ran this one (with minor adjustment for Python 3.1) and
your math works just fine. One *very* minor detail: maybe
pi could have a couple of extra digits.

What is this 'class' thingy you used?

5-11). part d.
I think that this is the solution the author is looking for.
You didn't waste a single character to ansewer it - perfect.

5-12).
I used the BIFs to find the required information, which i
didn't understand. I think the point is that, at sometime
should we need this info, we know where to find it.

5-17).
I struggled with this one. As usual for me, i didn't read
the question thoroughly.
Briefly, i think this is what is asked for:

generate a list of 100  random integers between the values
1 and (2 ** 31) - 1. List1[] (say)

Then select a random number (a subset or collection) from List1[]
put them in List2[] (say).

Now sort List2[] and display it.
Done!

I hope this feedback will help you and others.
I accept that i could be wrong or that someone may have better
(and sexier) way to solve a problem.

Regards, PolyMath.

Your welcome

What is this 'class' thingy you used?

If your going to use the same values over and over it is sometimes best to create a class for it.
I am still learning so I will sometimes practice if it fits that.
here are some simple ones, we will get to them later anyway

Yes it helps keep it coming
