Thanks in advance. alvaroo (i) is done by In[1]:= IntegerDigits[123456,10] Out[1]= {1,2,3,4,5,6} or In[1]:= IntegerDigits[123456,8] Out[1]= {3,6,1,1,0,0} (ii) is done by In[2]:= Complement[{1,2,3,4},{1,2}] Out[2]= {3,4} es gruesst Peter -- =--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--= Peter Breitfeld, Saulgau, Germany PGP public key: 08548045
