Problem

[Stidolph, David]

I'm mystified, the code you show should work.  What does it have to do with
strings?

How can I calculate with string if they are numbers.
For example:
first = 20
second = 10
calc = first - second   # This doesn't work. I hope you understand what
I try to do.

Thanks in advance,
