Strings are cheap.

Subject: [program-l] Python, Passing a parameter as int instead of STR when 
using the CMD modual?

I've begun playing with Python's CMD module, and I  now have a 
functioning command line interface to my program. I was initially 
perplexed though as I was seeing odd errors when executing many of my 
methods. Long story short, I realized that this was due to the fact that 
CMD passes parameters in as strings, and my functions expected ints. 
It's really not a big deal, I can just convert to int within each 
method, but it seems there should be a more elegant way to deal with this.

Thanks,

Al
