network simulator in Python ?

[DanielJohnson]

I was wondering if anyblody can suggest me a network simulator written
in python in which I can add on my own code and extend its
functionality.

I am looking for a simulator which will simualte TCP, UDP, RTP and
most networking protocol. The learning curve for ns2 and other
simulator is too high for me at this time and thats why I am
considering Python for it.

Every help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Creating Installer or Executable in Python

[DanielJohnson]

I have a small project which has around 10 .py files and I run this
project using command line arguments. I have to distribute this
project to somebody.

I was wondering how can I make an executable or some kind of
installer, so that end user doesn't need to compile and worry if he/
she has Python installed or not ?

Every help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Thanks for telling about py2exe.

Is there any utility that will help to make it as a .deb or .rpm file
(for Linux)?

BitVector

[DanielJohnson]

Hi,

I am trying to solve a genetic algorithm problem where I want to read
a bitvector of very large size (say 1) and manipulate bits based
on certain algorithms.

I am a newbie in Python. What data structure are good to read such
huge data set. Are there any built in classes for bit fiddling.

Every help is greatly appreciated,

Thanks
