It doesn't matter to me any more than whether my tax calculations are consistently correct were my class the one you described a few posts back.
Can someone remind me why we are talking about threads related to my complex number class? Which I think we have agreed is just in the end a class like any other class. My general understanding is that unless there is some special reason to get into it, stay away from trying to manage multiple threads of execution in general, and in Python in particular. Should I not be using classes? Sould I not be using threads? Should I not be using Python? Should I not be programming? Which the hell is it, damn it. Art Are we talking OS threads that are somehow unavoidable?
