Inquiry regarding the name of subprocess.Popen class
Hi. I wondered if anyone knew the rationale behind the naming of the Popen class in the subprocess module. Popen sounds like the a suitable name for a function that created a subprocess, but the object itself is a subprocess, not a "popen". It seems that it would be more accurate to just name the class Subprocess, can anyone explain why this is not the case? Thank you. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

how to find position of dictionary values
hi,
i have a dictionary as follows :
kev : {'phno': ['dgsd', 'gsdg', 'dfsdf', 'g'], 'email': ['dg',
'sgsd', 'sdfsdf', 'gdf'], 'name': ['ds', 'dsg', 'dsfds', 'fgdf'],
'address': ['sdg', 'dsgsdg', 'sdf', 'dfg']}
if user is enters the 3rd item of key phno, ie "dfsdf" in my dict,
how can i find it is the third item in the internal list of phno of
that dictionary? thanks you.

Unable to clear Entry subwidget of Tix Combo Box
Hi,
In my combo box taken from Tix, how can I clear the entry subwidget?
My case is like this:
I have a check button which when made un-ticked should clear the entry
from combo box (i. anything selected in combo box previously)
I used the following commands:
subEntry = self.cbAnalysisLibVersion.subwidget("entry")
subEntry.delete(0,END)
But this is not working.
Please help.
Thanks and regards,

Re: how to find position of dictionary values
lookfor = 'dfsdf'
for item, value in kev.items():
if lookfor in value:
print item
print value.index(lookfor)
break # assuming you only want one result
You can also skip the 'if' verification in which case you need to catch
ValueError exception in case there is no such entry in the current list.
Hope it helps.

It's quite simple (hint : read the FineManual(tm) for dict.items() and
list.index()), but 1/totally inefficient and 2/not garanteed to yield a
single value (what if 'dfsdf' happens to be also the 4th item of the
list bound to key 'address' ?).
May I suggest you rethink your data structure instead ? What you have
here is obviously a collection of 'phno/email/name/address'records.
These records shouldn't be split across different objects. Assuming
'phno' is a unique identifier for each record, a better data structure
would be:
records = {
'dgsd' : {'email': 'dg', 'name' : 'ds', 'address' : 'sdg'},
'gsdg' : {'email': 'sgsd', 'name':'ds', 'address' : 'dsgsdg'},
# etc
}
This way, the lookup is as simple and efficient as possible.

It would be an interesting puzzle to find the most efficient design whereby: - The single-character mnemonics are as easy to memorize as possible; - The instructions produce as efficient code as possible; - The mnemonics really do accurately express what the instruction does; - Minimize total number of instructions needed, maybe fewer than 16; - With the low-order-four-bits rule of course. - See also the avoid-ambiguous-sound criterion later below. By the way, do you remember exactly all the 16 opcodes, or have a Web reference available? > [Or you could type in the actual hex digits, since the low 4 bits > of *their* character codes were also their corresponding binary > nibble values... "but that would have been wrong".] Moreso because some of the sounds would be ambiguous, which I recognized when I first started to use the IBM hexadecimal standard. See below. > The LGP-30 character code was defined before the industry had > yet standardized on a common "hex" [sic, "hexadecimal", base 16 > not base 6!!!] character set, Before IBM had decided to use hexadecimal in their abend coredumps from their System/360 and by their 800-pound-gorilla status they got everyone else to use that ABCDEF system. > they used "0123456789fgjkqw". That doesn't make sense. The low-order four bits of those letters aren't consecutive ascending values from 9+1 to 9+6. Did you make a typo, or did you explain something wrong? (map 'list #'char-code "0123456789fgjkqw") => (48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 102 103 106 107 113 119) (loop for n in * collect (rem n 16)) => (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 6 7 10 11 1 7) Now if you used this sequence of letters instead: (map 'list #'char-code "0123456789jklmno") => (48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 106 107 108 109 110 111) (loop for n in * collect (rem n 16)) => (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15) Unfortunately o looks like 0, and l looks like 1. Anyway, what I hated about IBM's hexadecimal notation was: - A0 would be pronounced "Ay-tee", which sounds too much like "Eighty". - 1A would be pronounced "Ay-teen", which sounds too much like "Eighteen". - On the lineprinters where we get our abend listings, the capital D and digit 0 (which didn't have any diagonal slash) looked almost identical when the ribbon was going bad, as it always was. - Likewise B and 8 looked nearly identical. - Likewise E and F often looked nearly identical of lower part of E was hitting bad part of ribbon. Now for single-character mnemonics for four bits of instruction opcode, to avoid any two characters that look too similar: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z We obviously have no choice for KLMNO, so because of look-alike we can't use 0 or D or Q, so we have to use P instead of 0, so our choices look like: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C E F G H I J K L M N O P R S T U V W X Y Z If we have an opcode that sets a register to 1, or clears register#1, we might use mnemonic "1" for that instruction, but otherwise we must avoid using digits, use letters only. 1 A B C E F G H I J K L M N O P R S T U V W X Y Z We can't use both U and V, and we can't use both E and F, and we can't use both 1 and I, but we're stuck using both M and N, sigh. At this point I can't decide which branches of the search to discard and which to fix, so I'll stop analysing this puzzle. (With lower-case characters different combinations were mutually exclusive, such as l and 1, but I was doing upper case here.) If punctuation is allowed, then + - * / = < > would make dandy mnemonic opcodes for the obvious instructions. If characters that look like arrows can be used for push and pop, then we have V for push and ^ for pop. If characters that look like arrows can be used for moving left/right in RAM, or shifting bits in a register, then we have < for left and > for right. I wonder if solving this puzzle will yield yet another esoteric programming language? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

That's not quite as easy as you might think. In my testing, calling type(obj.methodName) can give any of the following: There may be others as well. Possibly all you really need is to check if the attribute is callable without caring what type of method or function it is: >>> callable(obj.methodName) True In my opinion, that's the best way. If you are sure that the method won't have side-effects or bugs: >>> try: ... obj.method() ... except: ... print "Not a method" ... (But how can you be sure?)

Are "u" short on keystrokes? You are not textmessaging here...
Regarding the actual question: there is no difference in building your or
the other structure. It's only a question of which key you use first.
Instead of first looking up the type of the record ("phno" or some such),
do that with the name of the user. If no record exists, create one. Then
populate the record with the user's values. Like this:
user = "dsdf"
phonenumber = "123"
record = records.setdefault(user, {})
record["phno"] = phonenumber

Yes, it is. There is a number of third party packages that provide such functionality, including PSI: http://www.psychofx.com/psi/ I never actually liked them, because they are parsing /proc directory by themselves. Thus I wrote my own tool that is a wrapper around procps library (libproc* in your /lib, probably). Your system tools like ps, w or top are using this library. My wrapping library is available at: http://code.google.com/p/procpy/ In your case you could use it like this: >>> import procpy >>> pp = procpy.Proc() >>> for pid in pp.pids: ...if pp.procs[pid]['cmd'] == 'apache2': ... print pp.procs[pid]['tid'] ... 5204 5205 5206 5208 >>> it prints the PIDs of all the apache2 processes on my system. Procpy is fine for my own needs, but if I were about to write a code that is intended to be portable, I'd use PSI. It also is more mature. -- Regards, Wojtek Walczak, http://tosh.pl/gminick/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: list + dictionary searching

Hello All,
I am very new to python. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks
I have a list of dictionaries:
a = [{'username': u'John Wang', 'user_utilization': 1.0, 'month': 9,

'year': 2008}]
I would like to :
search dictionaries within this list
Care to elaborate ???
create a new list with dictionaries which gives 1 dictionary for every
user with month_year as a key and utilization for that month as a
value
assuming the user_id/month/year combination is unique:
from collections import defaultdict
users = defaultdict(dict)
for record in a:
month_year = "%(month)s_%(year)s" % record
users[record['user_id']][month_year] = record['user_utilization']

Re: (in memory) database
mark a écrit : Hi there, I need to extract data from text files (~4 GB) on this data some operations are performed like avg, max, min, group etc. The result is formated and written in some other text files (some KB). I currently think about database tools might be suitable for this. I would just write the import from the text files and ... the tool does the rest. The only problem I can imagine is that this would not be fast enough. Is this an a priori, or did you actually benchmark and found out it would not fit your requirements ?

Retrieving http headers from HTTPConnection object
Hi,
when using httplib for http requests, like for example:
conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("www.python.org")
conn.request("GET", "/index.html")
Is it possible to retrieve the complete http request in string form :
GET /index.html HTTP/1.1
Host: www.python.org
User-Agent: ...
Accept: ...
Accept-Language:
Accept-Encoding:
Accept-Charset:
Keep-Alive:
Connection:
I mean does the HTTPConnection object have a property that stores this ?
or is it retrievable by some other form?
Thanks a lot.

Looking at the code of HTTPConnection, all that goes through the

Best way for add new path when embedding python into C
Hi list, I have a little question about whats' the best way for add - no replace - new path into python c embedding environment for this situation. I'm using PyObject_CallObject(pfunc, pArgs); for call one function of some module loaded with PyImport_Import function. PyImport_Import function search this module into system path list object. I read some examples about Py_GetPath and PySys_SetPath and i think some examples are wrong or can be misinterpreted. Py_GetPath make only a basic path, some sitautions are considred for make this path, for example read environment varialbes. PySys_SetPath overwrite all path list object. When Py_Initialitze it's called sys path object is generated with Py_GetPath content and a other directories added by site.py file pre processor. The best way for add new path before call PyImport_Import is adding new string item into sys path object ?

The same way you'd add a path in Python:
PyObject *sys_path;
PyObject *path;
sys_path = PySys_GetObject("path");
if (sys_path == NULL)
return NULL;
path = PyString_FromString("/your/path")
if (path == NULL)

is very basic (no pun) stuff, mostly documented, and easy to try out
using the interactive interpreter. This ng is very newbie-friendly, but
this doesn't mean you can hope to get by without doing the minimal

On Mon, 01 Sep 2008 11:45:36 +0200, Luca asked about recognizing methods: > What is the best way to do this? The "most pythonic"? That depends on why you are doing it, and what you want to do with the information once you've found it. If you are experimenting in the interactive interpreter, the easiest way is simply call the method and see what happens: obj.methodName() # call the method If it succeeds, then it is some sort of callable, a method or a function or something more unusual. If you fear side-effects, then use: callable(obj.methodName) Alternatively, you can read the docs: help(obj) help(obj.methodName) If your aim is to write something like a debugger, profiler, or some other application that needs to inspect arbitrary objects and work out what they do, then you probably should be using: isinstance(obj.methodName, new.instancemethod) But remember that not all callable attributes are instancemethods! There is no one right way of doing this. Hope this helps. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

How to print first(national) char from unicode string encoded in utf-8?
Hi,
I have a problem with unicode string in Pylons templates(Mako). I will
print first char from my string encoded in UTF-8 and urllib.quote(),
for example string 'Łukasz':
${urllib.unquote(c.user.firstName).encode('latin-1')[0:1]}
and I received this information:
: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte
0xc5 in position 0: unexpected end of data
When I change from [0:1] to [0:2] everything is ok. I think it is
because of unicode and encoding utf-8(2 bytes).
How to resolve this problem?

Now, when I don't print anything out, the program hangs. I will try this again and let the board know the results.

First: you're talking about utf8 encoding, but you've written latin1
encoding. Even though I do not know Mako templates, there should be no
problem in your snippet of code, if encoding is latin1, at least for
what I can understand.
Do not assume utf8 is a two byte encoding; utf8 is a variable length
encoding. Indeed,
'a' encoded as utf8 is 'a' (one byte)
'à' encode as utf8 is '\xc3\xa0' (two bytes).
Can you explain what you're trying to accomplish (rather than how
you're tryin to accomplish it) ?

Multiple window handling
Hi!!
I'm trying to program an application which have multiple windows and
is capable of executing method defined inside class of one another, i
tries a simpel frame work here and am creating Toplevel inside method
as the new window to be genereated, and again want another window to
be loaded when the widget inside toplevel is executed as
necessary..but am feeling lost to either create a class for such new
window or write function again..
also, when running clearentry() it is not working...have i missed

Using an existing instance as parent
Hi, I was trying to find a way to set, upon __init__() the parent of a class to an existing instance. Here is a minimal example of what I'm trying to do: class A(object): def __init__(self, x): self.x = x class B(A): def __init__(self, *args): if not isinstance(args[0], A): super(B, self).__init__(args[0]) else: self = args[0] self.y = args[1] b = B(4, 6) print 'b:', b.x, b.y, type(b) a = A(7) c = B(a, 3) # Means: please set c parent's using instance "a" print 'c:', c.x, c.y, type(c) This does not work as can be tested. The reason I'm in search for a solution in this area is that in our project, "A" is not copy-able (it is written using a boost.python binding to a C++ object that does not allow copying) - so I can't simply call, inside "B's __init__()", a copy constructor for A. Any ideas? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Eleganz way to get rid of \n
Hello,
I'm quite often using this construct:
for l in open("file", "r"):
do something
here, l contains the \n or \r\n on windows at the end.
I get rid of it this way:
for l in open("file", "r"):
while l[-1] in "\r\n":
l = l[:-1]
I find this a little bit clumsy, but it works fine.
Has someone a better solution ?
Thanks

CSV reader and unique ids
Hi All,
I'm trying to use the CSV module to read in some data and then use a
hashable method (as there are millions of records) to find unique ids
and push these out to another file,
can anyone advise? Below is the code so far
fin = open(CSV_INPUT, "rb")
fout = open(CSV_OUTPUT, "wb")
reader = csv.reader(fin, delimiter=chr(254))
writer = csv.writer(fout)
headerList = reader.next()
UID = {}
#For help
#print headerList
# ['Time', 'User-ID', 'IP']
try:
for row in reader[1]:
UID[row] = 1
else:
List= UID.keys()
writer.writerows(List)
fin.close()
fout.close()

That's crazy. "string".encode('latin1') gives you a latin1 encoded
string; latin1 is a single byte encoding, therefore taking the first
byte should be no problem.
Have you tried:
urlib.unquote(c.user.firstName)[0].encode('latin1') or
urlib.unquote(c.user.firstName)[0].encode('utf8')
I'm assuming here that the urlib.unquote(c.user.firstName) returns an
encodable string (which I'm absolutely not sure), but if it does, this
should take the first 'character'.

The most general would be to use rstrip() without
arguments:
>>> a="some string\r\n"
>>> a.rstrip()
'some string'
>>>
but be careful, because it will also cut whitespaces:
>>> a="some string\t \r\n"

so maybe you could do this:

Does anyone have an answer for this?
I uninstalled both Python 2.5 and Python 3.0b2 and then re-installed
3.0b2, thinking that the installer was confusing 2.5 and 3.0b2 on
Windows Vista. Still have the same issue.
I had to use my XP machine, since the Vista installation seems broken
for Python 3.0b2. How do I fix this? How do I get Python to notice the
pyexpat.lib in the C:\Python30\DLLs folder in Vista?

You can send both '\n' and '\r' in one rstrip call. No need for 2
separate calls.

nope -- if you open a file in text mode (without the "b"), the I/O layer
will translate "\r\n" to "\n" on Windows.
if you want even more robust behaviour, use the "U" flag (for universal
newlines); that'll handle old-style Mac files too.
(as others have pointed out, a plain rstrip() is usually the best choice
anyway. giving meaning to trailing whitespace in text files is usually
a really lousy idea).

Buffer objects
Greetings, I need a little help with buffer objects. Many Python objects export the buffer interface, or can be persuaded to create a buffer object with a buffer() call. First question, the buffer() function appears very quick. Does it just wrap the internal pointer and then exit? Second question, the buffer interface does include support for multiple segments of memory. All the buffers I have examined are only a single segment, is this a rarely used functionality? Third question, having got my buffer interface I want to get the actual pointer out so that I can call foreign functions with ctypes with the pointer as a function argument and add offsets to it, so I would like it as a plain int. What is the recommended method of accessing the raw pointer from the buffer object? It must be me but I have found the whole buffer thing difficult to understand from the docs, it appears only useful to C coders, but I use the buffer interface (GetData()) of wx.Image objects a lot in my work.

FHA Refinance Loan
On October 1, 2008, new FHA Refinance Loan Guidelines will go into effect as part of The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008. This new FHA Mortgage program is designed to help thousands of homeowners who are at risk of foreclosure in their curent conventional or sub- prime home loans. The details of The “HOPE for Homeowners Act of 2008� are as follows: 1. Eligible Borrowers Only owner-occupants who are unable to afford their mortgage payments are eligible for the program. No investors or investor properties will qualify. Homeowners must certify, under penalty of law, that they have not intentionally defaulted on their loan to qualify for the program and must have a mortgage debt-to-income ratio greater than 31% as of March 1, 2008. Lenders must document and verify borrowers’ income with the IRS. 2. Home Equity & Appreciation Sharing In order to avoid a windfall to the borrower created by the new 90% loan-to-value FHA-insured mortgage, the borrower must share the newly- created equity and future appreciation equally with FHA. This obligation will continue until the borrower sells the home or refinances the FHA-insured mortgage. Moreover, the homeowner’s access to the newly created equity will be phased-in over a 5 year period. The borrower agrees to repay the following share of any home equity appreciation with the FHA when the home is sold or refinanced again; A. 100% of any equity earned is paid to the government FHA if the home sells or the borrower refinances within 1 year. B. 90% of any equity earned is paid to the FHA if the home sells or the borrower refinances within 2 years. C. 80% of any positive equity earned is paid to the FHA if the home sells or the borrower refinances within 3 years. D. 70% of any positive equity earned is paid to the FHA if the home sells or the borrower refinances within 4 years. E. 60% of any positive equity earned is paid to the FHA if the home sells or the borrower refinances within 5 years. F. 50% of any positive equity earned is paid to the FHA if the home sells or the borrower refinances after 5 years. Note: The FHA requires a 3% Exit Fee of the Mortgage Principal Balance when the borrower sells or refinances the home again. 3. Other Requirements Existing Subordinate Liens Before participating in this program, all subordinate liens (such as second loans, home equity loans, etc.) must be extinguished. This will have to be done through negotiation with the first lien holder. Mortgage Insurance and Other Fees The Up Front FHA Mortgage Insurance Premium that is required on all FHA Refinance Loans will change as part The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008. The Monthly MI Rates have also been updated. The following FHA MI rates will begin on October 1, 2008 and will be effective for 12 months; FHA Up Front MIP - Required on all FHA Loans (Can be financed into loan amount). 1.75% - Normal FHA 203(b) Refinance 1.5% - FHA Streamlined Refinance 3.0% - FHASecure (Refinance for high risk borrowers who are already delinquent on current mortgage) Monthly MI ��" Multiply the loan amount by the figure below and then divide by 12. The result is your Monthly Mortgage Insurance. 30 Year Note 0.55% - Refinance greater than 90% of the home’s LTV. 0.50% - Refinance less than or equal to 90% of the home’s LTV. 15 Year Note 0.25% - Refinance greater than 90% of the home’s LTV. Monthly MI is not required on an 15 Year FHA Refinance Loan with an LTV of 90% or less. The FHA Refinance Loan Process Each new loan will be originated and underwritten on a case-by-case basis. To get approved, your income statements, bank accounts, credit scores and work history will be examined. A new appraisal must be performed on your home to determine its current value. If doesnt have positive equity, then you must contact your current lender and negotiate with them to reduce (write down) your current mortgage to 90% of its current appraised value. If your current lender agrees to the write down, then you will be able to proceed with the FHA refinance. www.my-quickloans.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

> From: George Neuner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > A friend of mine had an early 8080 micros that was programmed > through the front panel using knife switches When you say "knife switches", do you mean the kind that are shaped like flat paddles? I think that would be the IMSAI, which came after the ALTAIR. Those flat paddle-shaped switched would presumably be much more comfortable on the fingers than the standard metal toggle switches on the ALTAIR. I had an ALTAIR, which made front-panel programming rather painful on the fingers. > ... toggle in the binary address, latch it, toggle in the binary > data, latch it, repeat ad nauseam. For manually loading software in sequential locations, you have to enter the binary address only once. After that, you press the EXAMINE-NEXT toggle to increment the address by one. That reduced the effort by nearly a factor of 3. Instead of toggling a 16-bit address and EXAMINE and 8-bit datum and STORE each time, you toggle just EXAMINE-NEXT and 8-bit datum and STORE for each consecutive memory location after the first. Note the address and data toggles are bistable, stay in whatever position you left them in, whereas the three control toggles (EXAMIME EXAMINE-NEXT STORE) are spring loaded, making momentary contact when you force them then spring back to inactive when you release them. > It had no storage device initially ... to use it you had to input > your program by hand every time you turned it on. Almost but not quite true. With static RAM, most of the data can survive power-downs of hours or even days. I had 28k bytes of static RAM on my ALTAIR, so if I needed to start it up after it had been shut down I'd toggle in the starting address by hand, EXAMINE that, compare what shows with what's on my printed listing, and if it matches just EXAMINE-NEXT to compare the next. In the few cases I saw a bit or two flipped, I'd re-enter that one byte of data. I had to do that only for my BOOT1 loader, which was hand-loaded from front panel and took text input in 3n+1 form from Beehive 3A terminal connected to serial port, maybe also for BOOT2 loader which had been loaded in 3n+1 form and took input in hexadecimal form, and maybe also for BOOT3 loader which had been loaded in hexadecimail form from Beehive and automatically downloaded the next bootstrap loader from modem. If only a few bytes (of BOOT2 or BOOT3) had been damaged by days of power down, comparing binary against listing to verify it's 99% correct, and then manually patching just one or two bytes, would be faster and safer than manually entering 3n+1 or hexadecimal from keyboard. But once BOOT3 was loaded, I always downloaded all the rest of the software from the PDP-10 over the modem. > I did a little bit of programming on it, but I tired of it quickly. Did your friend's machine have two serial ports, one for local terminal and one for modem, and did you have access to a remote PDP-10 or other mainframe for running a cross-assembler? Or did you have some other computer locally available, where you could use that other computer both to store your library of code and to perform automated file transfer from archive on other computer to where it's needed on IMSAI? > As did my friend - once he got the tape storage working (a new > prom) Yeah, I never had the money to buy that, and with the PDP-10 available for both cross-assembling and archiving/downloading, I didn't need it. > Machine coding is not relevant anymore - it's completely > infeasible to input all but the smallest program. That's not totally true. For some educational purposes, like *really* understanding pointers (not the kind in C so much as the kind that are inherent in all pointer-linked data structures such as linked lists and binary search trees etc.), it helps to have some "hands-on" experience writing and executing machine-language code, in a sense actually "seeing" a register first point to the first byte of a CONS cell then by indexing with offset pointing *through* the *second* pointer of that CONS cell to whatever the CDR points to. Then "mission impossible" when your instructor tells you to see if there's a way to reverse that process, whereby you are given the register pointing to whatever the CDR points to, and you are supposed to find the address of the original CONS cell.

Py 2.6 changes
I have just re-read the list of changes in Python 2.6, it's huge, there are tons of changes and improvements, I'm really impressed: http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/2.6.html I'll need many days to learn all those changes! I can see it fixes several of the missing things/problems I have found in Python in the past, like the lack of information regarding the floating point it uses, etc. I have seen that many (smart) updates are from Hettinger. You can see a language gets better when you can remove often-used commodity functions/classes from your own 'bag of tricks' :-) (Like the permutations() function, etc). >Python now must be compiled with C89 compilers (after 19 years!). This means >that the Python source tree has dropped its own implementations of memmove and >strerror, which are in the C89 standard library.< I presume it's better for me to not hold my breath while I wait CPython to be written in C99 :-) Now math has factorial: http://docs.python.org/dev/library/math.html#math.factorial Seen how reduce() is removed from Python 3 (I know it's in itertools), and seeing that for me to write a productory() function was the first usage I have had for reduce, years ago, I think the math module can gain a productory() function too. For Python 2.7/3.1 I'd now like to write a PEP regarding the underscores into the number literals, like: 0b_0101_, 268_435_456 etc. I use such underscores all the time in the D language, and I think they can be a tiny but significant improvement for Python (and underscore is much better than just a space, because the underscore helps the person that reads the code to understand that's a single number).

You could use Gadfly for this since it is pure Python and provides a standard Python DB-API interface: http://gadfly.sourceforge.net/ (the C extensions are optional to speedup processing) This is the SQL subset it supports: http://gadfly.sourceforge.net/sql.html Another option is SnakeSQL: http://pythonweb.org/projects/snakesql/ but I've never used that one, so can't judge its quality. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Sep 01 2008) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ...http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ...http://python.egenix.com/ Try mxODBC.Zope.DA for Windows,Linux,Solaris,MacOSX for free ! eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.

Note that you are not supposed to use _show, use showerror here instead.

Remove the call to sys.exit then ?

Your ask for a suggestion doesn't make much sense to me, try writing
what are you trying to achieve.

Re: enhancing/wrapping an existing instance of a duck
Neville Dempsey a écrit : Basically I have an existing (maybe a rather large and complicated (existing) instance) that I want to add new member to. I suppose you mean "attributes" ? Cheers N Hacks/attempts follow: from math import sqrt try2 duck_obj = [ i*i for i in range(25) ] # OR a large sparse matrix # I "want" to an a useful property, eg length, and retain the ducks existing properties. # I COULD try... setattr(duck_obj,"length",lambda: sqrt(sum(*duck_obj))) Won't work on a list. print duck_obj.length() # returns 70 duck_obj[0]=70+71 print duck_obj.length() # returns 71 You obviously didn't try the above code. Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 2, in AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'length' Also and FWIW, in Python, the "sizeable" protocol is implemented using a __len__ method, that will get called by the generic len(sizeable) function. try2 # **BUT** I'd rather encapsulate a the original instance somehow. > # I presume that I could define a class to do this somehow? duck_obj = [ i*i for i in range(25) ] # OR a LargeSparseMatrix() dec = Vec(duck_obj) ??? print dec.length() # returns 70 duck_obj[0]=70+71 # original "large and complicated duck instance" print dec.length() # returns 71 Any hints on how I need to define Vec so that any kind of duck_obj can be decorated/wrapped/encapsulated. Depends on the type of duck_obj. In the above case, I'd inherit from list and override __len__ : >>> import math >>> class Vec(list): ... def __len__(self): ... return math.sqrt(sum(self)) ... >>> Vec(range(10)) [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] >>> len(Vec(range(10))) 6 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
