Ok, so further research revealed that 0600 is actually the octal 
representation for 384 (which makes sense.)  So then, I guess my 
question would have to be, is there a way for me to make Python aware 
that the 0600 I'm passing to int() is octal and not decimal so that I 
will get 384 instead of 600?
