What is wrong with the following in Mathematica 7: Clear[n]; FullSimplify[n Exp[-n * 0.], Element[n, Integers]] result: n/2, which is scary. If I replace 0. by $MachineEpsilon/2, I get a correct result. It's also fun to express your feelings about Mathematica 7 this way: FullSimplify[$Version Exp[$Version *($VersionNumber - $VersionNumber)]] Jens
