[Zope] lower(), how?

[Randall F. Kern]

You are probably using Python 1.5.2, whereas Michel was using a more
recent build.

In 1.5.2, use the string module:

import string
n =3D raw_input("Guess a number between 1 and 100")
n =3D string.lower(n)

String methods (the ability to say "Foo".lower()) was added in Python
1.6.
