Sunbeam India UPS Point- unfiar Trade Practices in Computer Business
Save Money, Tension, and Time. Avoid Nehru Place market to buy
Computer Goods

Hello All,

This is to inform you all the sellers at the Nehru Place are not
selling good products. Especially the shop-

Nishchal Joshi, Sunbeam India UPS Point, 103, S2 1st Floor, Siddhartha
Building, Nehru Place, New Delhi

110019. Phone - 9810276805, Email - [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Engineer at Shop- Subash - 996899657

I bought a motherboard from that shop and that computer don't even
worked for a single day. We called the

person in just two days of purchase and he said he was out of town and
so therefore bring it to me after one

week. We took the system to his shop after spending money to nehru
place, there he kept the system for five

days and returned it back to us. However it was not rectified. Then we
called him to our house and he charged

money for this and did some corrections in the system and restarted
the system. We told him to take his

motherboard and gave our own old motherboard, then he said that he
will rectify it, after making settings he left

for the day. When we started the system, it started and got shut down
immediately. And after that it never

started.

We called this person again and told him to take his motherboard back
and gave us our old motherboard, but

he said I am not the correct person, talk to the engineer who set the
system for you. That Engineer Subash

works for the Nishchal in his shop.

Please suggest what action can be taken against him.

Steps in the pipeline - Consumer Forum, Escalating issue to Consumer
Affairs, Online Web and Nehru Place

Online Community, so that others do not fall prey to this.

Thanks

pythonw.exe

[Ronald Reynolds]

Dear Python Friends:
in my python directory there is a python.exe file which I understand completely 
but there is also a pythonw.exe DOS seems to honor the pythonw
command (No error message) but nothing happens. What is pythonw.exe?
Also is there a way to invoke idle from the DOS prompt?  I tried idle 
filename.py  and  just idle. Is there any .exe for idle?

Sincerely, 'Ron "bumpker" Reynolds'

upgrade python

[Ronald Reynolds]

What is recommended for upgrading python for windows? Do I just install the new 
versionDo I edit my system path? Should I uninstall the old version.  Right now 
I have 2.7 and3.1  and 3.2  and I keep editing my system path when I install a 
new version but I'm notsure that's the right way to go.  Is there an upgrade 
way? I only found downloads at Python.org  thx     'Ron "bumpker" Reynolds' --

Any ideas?
Did you use pythonw to start your script? If you use the normal 
interpreter (the one named python) you've run into an annoying feature 
of the MacOS X display system, pythonw can be used to circumvent that 
feature.

ANN: pyobjc-1.2

[Ronald Oussoren]

PyObjC 1.2 is now available for download at 
http://pyobjc.sourceforge.net/

PyObjC is a bridge between Python and Objective-C.  It allows full
featured Cocoa applications to be written in pure Python.  It is also
easy to use other frameworks containing Objective-C class libraries
from Python and to mix in Objective-C, C and C++ source.
Python is a highly dynamic programming language with a shallow learning
curve.  It combines remarkable power with very clear syntax.
The installer package includes a number of Xcode templates
for easily creating new Cocoa-Python projects.
PyObjC also supports full introspection of Objective-C classes and
direct invocation of Objective-C APIs from the interactive interpreter.
PyObjC requires Mac OS X 10.2 or later and Python 2.3 or later.  PyObjC 
works
both with the Apple provided Python installation in Mac OS X 10.3 (and 
later)
and with MacPython 2.3.

This release features several bugfixes, improved documentation as well 
as
support for categories, easier customization and basic support for 
creating
Interface Builder palettes. See the news file at
http://pyobjc.sourceforge.net/NEWS-1.2.txt for more information.

PyObjC is released with an open source license (MIT style).

It's an application bundle, which is a folder. All '.app'-s on OS X are 
folders, it is a neat way of bundling the application program and all 
data files it needs.

I was wondering if some extra codes needed by setup.py
Could anyone give me an advice?
What is 'eventlog.xml' supposed to be? If you're going to write to it, 
it is in the wrong location. If it is a datafile that is used by your 
application you should mention it in the setup.py script (the 
data_files argument).

web scraping

[Ronald Routt]

I am new to programming and trying to figure out python.  

I am trying to learn which tools and tutorials I need to use along with some 
good beginner tutorials in scraping the the web.  The end result I am trying to 
come up with is scraping auto dealership sites for the following:  

1.Name of dealership
2.  State where dealership is located
3.  Name of Owner, President or General Manager
4.  Email address of number 3 above
5.  Phone number of dealership

Note:  Many times the Owner, President or General Manager and their email 
address is under a tab on the website such as "Meet our team" or "Support".  
Sometimes this information is not available on the website.

I sure would appreciate any help I can get to get me on the right track.  From 
what I have read so far, believe I have to use urllib but know nothing about 
how to us it..

Thanks

[Ronald Cosentino]

def funA(x,y,z):
return (x+y) * z
def funB(x,y):

print(funA(4,funB(2,3), funB(3,2)))

PEP 309 (Partial Function Application) Idea

[Ronald Mai]

In my opinion, Ellipsis might be in the middle, not only in leftmost or
rightmost, so a placeholder approach can be much more flexible and
convenient.

Here is a reference implementation:

_ = lambda x: x.pop(0)

def partial(func, *args, **keywords):
def newfunc(*fargs, **fkeywords):
newkeywords = keywords.copy()
newkeywords.update(fkeywords)
newargs = (lambda seq: tuple([(a == _ and a(seq)) or a for
a in args] + seq))(list(fargs))
return func(*newargs, **newkeywords)
newfunc.func = func
newfunc.args = args
newfunc.keywords = keywords
return newfunc

Here is example of use:

>>> def capture(*args):
return args

>>> partial(capture)()
()
>>> partial(capture, _)(1)
(1,)
>>> partial(capture, _, 2)(1)
(1, 2)
>>> partial(capture, 1)(2)
(1, 2)
>>> partial(capture, 1, _)(2)
(1, 2)
>>> partial(capture, 1, _)()
IndexError: pop from empty list
>>> partial(capture, 1, _, _)(2, 3)
(1, 2, 3)

for a new function, named parameter might be a better choise, but for

This seems to be a bug in distutils, triggered by the %-signs in your CFLAGS. 
The easiest way to work around this is to change the CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS in 
your environment, just remove the options containing %-signs. Those seem to be 
related to optimization and I don't think those will affect the performance of 
pysqlite very much.

A more permanent fix is change /opt/python/lib/python2.4/distutils/spawn.py" 
line 122, insert "%s" as the first argument of the call to log.info. This might 
not be the only place that requires changes.

noob trouble with IDLE

[Ronald Rodriguez]

Hi, Im new to python and I've just started using Byte of Python, running the
samples etc. Im using IDLE on Xp. Ok, here's the thing.
A sample script makes a call to the os.system() function in order to zip
some files. Everything works fine when running from the command line, but
the same code fails when I try Run --> Run module on IDLE. Im using 7z to
zip the files. Again, everything is OK when running from the command line.
Remember, Im new to python and programming. I've done some google search
without results. Maybe its just too simple :-(  . Any help would be
appreciated. Thanks in advance.

That's very string. I had ActiveState 8.4 installed (whatever was  
current about a month ago).




Just out of curiosity: which 3rd party Tcl/Tk did you have installed  
when you made the installer? Perhaps if it was 8.5 that would  
explain it. If so I may try updating my Tcl/Tk -- I've been wanting  
some of the bug fixes in 8.5 anyway.


Tcl 8.5 won't happen in 2.6, and might not happen in 2.7 either.   
Tkinter needs to work with the system version of Tcl, which is some  
version of 8.4,  Tkinter will not work when the major release of Tcl  
is different than during the compile. That makes it rather hard to  
support both 8.4 and 8.5 in the same installer.

The problem turned out to be keep-alive. Apparently, Comcast is limiting my 
inbound connections. Apache keeps the connections alive so it works fine. The 
Python servers don't support keep-alive and are using up the available 
connections too quickly.

I'm now using Apache as a proxy to the Python server and it works well.

Thanks for the response.

Python 2.7 installation problem

[Ronald Guida]

Hi,

I am trying to perform a user-install of python 2.7 on Ubuntu 10.04, and my
installation is failing.

This sequence of commands reproduces the failure on my system:

$ tar -zxvf Python-2.7.tgz
$ cd Python-2.7/
$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME
$ make
$ ./python Lib/test/test_collections.py
doctest (collections) ... 54 tests with zero failures
$ make altinstall
$ cd
$ which python2.7

Things I have already checked:
* My path includes ~/bin
* None of PYTHONHOME and friends are set.
* I have also tried "make install" instead of "make altinstall", and I get
the same failure.

Can anyone give me a hint regarding what has gone wrong?

Re: Python 2.7 installation problem

[Ronald Guida]

Solved -- "make install" failed to actually install a subset of files.  I
had to manually copy them instead.

Specifics:
I started from /home/oddron/installers/python/Python-2.7/ and executed the
usual commands:
$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME
$ make
$ make install

I have found that the installer failed to install the contents of
"/home/oddron/installers/python/Python-2.7/build/lib.linux-i686-2.7/",
which contains *.so files.  This explains why "import collections" would
work from
the built python in /home/oddron/installers/python/Python-2.7/, but would
fail in the installed
python in /home/oddron/bin/ .

I manually copied the contents of
"/home/oddron/installers/python/Python-2.7/build/lib.linux-i686-2.7/",
to /home/oddron/lib/python2.7/ and now everything seems to work.

Thank you

Re: Python 2.7 installation problem

[Ronald Guida]

Sorry, I have one additional piece of information that might be helpful to
others.  I have discovered that the *.so files that were not installed, were
actually installed to the ~/lib/python2.6/ folder instead of the
~/lib/python2.7/ folder where they belong.

Installing new module

[ronald brown]

I uzipped to python Lib directory and try to run sample prog got this
error. What am I doing wrong?

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "F:/Python25/Lib/MIDIUtil-0.87/a11", line 3, in 
from midiutil.MidiFile import MIDIFile
ImportError: No module named midiutil.MidiFile

TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'

[ronald . kevin . burton]

I am getting an exception that the traceback looks like:


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Projects\QA\robot_20141103\resources\assessment_utilities.py", line 
29, in create_new_project
program = customer.add(program_code)
  File "C:\Projects\QA\robot_20141103\resources\assessment_customer.py", line 
589, in add
program = ProgramMaker.Code2Program(program_code, self)
  File "C:\Projects\QA\robot_20141103\resources\programmaker.py", line 25, in 
Code2Program

  File "C:\Projects\QA\robot_20141103\resources\ppl.py", line 20, in __init__
MeasureMaker.Code2Measure('Furnace Whistle', self)
TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'


My problem is that I am not sure what the problem is. I can check the type of 
'self' which is an object and the string 'Furnace Whistle' is obviously not a 
list. The static function 'MeasureMaker.Code2Measure' is a simple factory:

class MeasureMaker:

def Code2Measure(measure_code, core):
try:
return {
...
'Furnace Whistle': FurnaceWhistle(core)
}[measure_code]
except KeyError as error:
return None
Code2Measure = staticmethod(Code2Measure)

What is the 'list' that is in the exception? Or how do I find out?

Thank you.

Kevin

mystring is already an IP address, sorry for not mentioning that.
The point is that ternary if; I've been scouring around the internet and 
there's a million different variations on the same idea. 
I'm completely flabberghasted it's not a simple property within the object 
though, e.g. ip.sock_family.

Was this a deliberate decision by the Python devs or can I try an RFE for that?

Well you've already got socket.create_connection(), which (I think) does 
perform that lookup.

There are no dumb ideas, just dumb people ;)

But seriously, I'll go see over there, thanks :) It's just that I'm amazed that 
this isn't in there yet; it's 2 simple properties added in for convenience and 
IMHO very Pythonic to be able to do aforementioned code.

Thanks again pplz :)

Hehehe right you are. I've posted an idea to python-ideas, we'll see how it 
goes from there.
Thanks again!
