Re: Python 3.3.2 help
Hello, My response is below, interleaved with your comments. D Moorcroft wrote: >> Hi, >> >> We are running Python 3.3.2 but pupils are unable to print as they >> cannot use the command prompt. What operating system are you using? Windows, Linux, Mac? Something else? Is it ALL pupils who are unable to print or just some of them? Which command prompt are they using? Can you reproduce the failure to print? If so, please tell us the detailed steps you (and the pupils) go through. E.g. something like this: "On Windows XP, choose Run from the Start Menu. Type cmd.exe and press Enter. When the terminal window opens, type print 'Hello World' and Enter." It will help if you can tell us whether your pupils are using IDLE, IPython, or the default Python interactive interpreter. If you can answer these questions, which should have a better chance of diagnosing the problem. Further responses below. >> An error comes up saying printing failed (exit status Oxff). Based on this, my guess is that your students are accidentally running the DOS "print" command at the DOS prompt, not Python at all. Perhaps they are forgetting to run the "python" command first to launch the Python interpreter, and are running directly in the DOS prompt? You can check this by reading the command prompt. If it looks like three greater-than signs >>> then you are running in Python's default interpreter. If it looks something like this: C:\Documents and Settings\user\> or perhaps like this: C:\> then you are still inside the DOS command prompt. Unfortunately, I am not very experienced with Windows, so I cannot tell you the right method to start Python. I would expect there to be a Start menu command, perhaps called "IDLE", or "Python", but I'm not sure. >> Is there any way that we can get users who can't see the command >> prompt to be able to print? I'm not entirely sure I understand this question. Can you explain in more detail? By the way, as you know there are two meanings of "print" in computing. There is printing to the screen, and printing to sheets of paper with an actual printer. Which are you intending? Regards, -- Steven -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Why Python has moved to a multilingual Unicode model
Many Python 2 users (mostly English speakers, but also a few Europeans) are frustrated with the move of Python 3 to Unicode strings instead of ASCII strings. One of the core Python developers, Nick Coghlan of Red Hat, has written an article for the Red Hat Developer Blog explaining why the core devs have made that major paradigm shift of text-as-ASCII-plus-bytes to text-as-Unicode: http://developerblog.redhat.com/2014/09/09/transition-to-multilingual-programming-python/ -- Steven -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

streaming dynamically appended music tracks
Hi Python list admins, I didn't see a page on etiquette at the info page, so inquiring of you: Is the Python list an appropriate place to seek a mentor for hire? I'm new to Python and have been working with Echonest's Remix "music synthesizer" package. I may be out of my league with the large amount of data required by the Numpy arrays, which will require some combination of streaming, threading, lazy loading, etc. I've found some promising leads in ForeverFM, but my background in php (css, html, etc) does not include extensive or advanced programming. Thanks and peace.

An interesting question. Normally I'd point you to the Python Job Board, but I believe it's down at the moment. I'm really not sure what the best place to post this sort of thing is.

Re: O'Reilly Python Certification
I just completed all four modules and Kirby was my instructor. I really enjoyed the class and got a lot out of it. I am not a developer, so common concepts like objects were new to me, whereas standard data structures like lists, dicts, etc. were already known. It definitely allowed me to increase my overall understanding of common programming concepts while I learned the pythonic way to implement them. I recommend the class. It's a bit pricey, so best if your employer can foot the bill. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
