[Tutor] learning how to convert script to python
I am learning python at the moment--this is something I would like to
work on/convert. It's a poker application that opens a table for you
every x-minutes.
The project has been discontinued and I would like to convert it to
python, then use it.
Can you tell me what language this is--lisp or autohotkey?
What do I need to learn so I can convert these?
Thanks!

Re: [Tutor] Class methods
"David Merrick" wrote
Is it possible too have
crit1 = Critter("Dave")
crit2 = Critter("Sweetie")
farm = [crit1,crit2] #List#
and then be able to use Critters methods on farm?
No, Marc has already answered that.
class Critter(object):
"""A virtual pet"""
def __init__(self, name, hunger = 0, boredom = 0):
# __ denotes private method
def __pass_time(self):
self.hunger += 1
self.boredom += 1
self.__str__()
def __str__(self):
print("Hunger is",self.hunger, "Boredom is " ,self.boredom)
print("Unhappines is ",self.hunger + self.boredom," and Mood
is
",self.mood)
This is a really bad idea. Please do not do this,
it will almost certainly lead to problems later.
__str__ should return a string. It should not print anything.
Then you can simply call
print (self)
at the end of the pass_time method
or call
print (farm[0])
in your external code.

I'm on the Critter Caretake problem that involves handling more than
one
critter. I have looked At David Merrick's threads for some answers,
Given that David hasn't solved the problem yet that may not
be the best source! :-)
difference is that he created a whole new class to handle it,
He has now reverted to a simple list.
made more critter objects. The only problem I have left is to have
my
actions (play and eat) apply to all my creatures ALL AT ONCE,
instead of one
at a time like it is in my code right now.
You can't. You can only apply the methods to one critter at a time.
You can write code to wrap it all up into a convenient single call,
but that code will still need to call each item separately. There is
no such thing as a "call all" mechanism in Python.
BTW, You have the same issue as David with __str__.
__str__() should return a string, it should not print anything itself.
If you sdo that you can then, in your main code write
print(crit1)
instead of
crit1.__str__()
This makes using objects much more like using other data types.
Also in your init method:
def __init__(self, name, hunger = 0, boredom = 0):
hunger = random.randint(0,15)
boredom = random.randint(0,15)
These two lines mean you throw away the values being
passed in to the constructor, so you might as well not
have them. And...
self.name = name
self.hunger = hunger
self.boredom = boredom
Since you just assign them to the attributes you might as well
just do the call to randint() here and delete the first two lines
completely.
Finally in play()
def play(self, fun = 4):
while self.boredom >= 3:
fun = int(input("\n How long do you want to play?: "))
if fun > 5:
int(input("\n How long do you want to play?: "))
You ignore the value of fun passed into the method.
(And in your code never pass a value) So again you could
just lose the fun parameter.
Then if fun > 5 you ask the user for a value, convert it to an
int then throw it away so it does no good. You probably should
assign the new value to fun.

No idea what autohotkey looks like but it certainly is NOT Lisp.
What do I need to learn so I can convert these?
Python and whatever the language is.
But you will also need to convert all of the support modules
that the code uses - like Gui for example, and they might
be written in a different language - like C perhaps.
Its an interesting challenge but it could be bigger than
you think! Be prepared for the long run.

Last thing I need to do solve is the __str__ problem. I can print the name
fine, but everytime I try to put in the self.hunger and self.boredom values

[Tutor] Zipping files and Mysql
I am trying to write a script that will dump a mysql db and then zip the file. I do know about mysqldb, but I was wondering if there is anything native to the libraries that will allow me to do this without using a seperate piece. Then after I gather the DBs, I need to zip them. I wrote the following, but wanted to know if I am heading in the correct direction. zipfile.zipfile(/myfiles/my_db/, w, zip_stored) ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
[Tutor] nested list query

So, I'd suggest that you try to figure out how to eliminate managing your 3 critters via 3 explicit variables and instead store them in a list, and enhancing the program so you can add critters from the menu.

[Tutor] Beginner troubleshooting py2exe
Hello! I'm trying to follow the introductory tutorial on using py2exe at http://py2exe.org/index.cgi/Tutorial. It's very straightforward except that I keep getting an error when I come to step #3 and I don't know what I need to do about it: I'm running Python 2.7 on Windows Vista (32-bit). I've installed Python in C:\Python27 and py2exe in C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\py2exe. When I reach step #3 in the tutorial and run my setup script that I just wrote from the tutorial's guidelines, I get the following error: C:\Python27>python setup.py py2exe running py2exe *** searching for required modules *** *** parsing results *** creating python loader for extension 'unicodedata' (C:\Python27\DLLs\unicodedata .pyd -> unicodedata.pyd) creating python loader for extension 'select' (C:\Python27\DLLs\select.pyd -> se lect.pyd) creating python loader for extension '_hashlib' (C:\Python27\DLLs\_hashlib.pyd - > _hashlib.pyd) creating python loader for extension 'bz2' (C:\Python27\DLLs\bz2.pyd -> bz2.pyd) *** finding dlls needed *** Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 6, in setup(console=['hello.py']) File "C:\Python27\lib\distutils\core.py", line 152, in setup dist.run_commands() File "C:\Python27\lib\distutils\dist.py", line 953, in run_commands self.run_command(cmd) File "C:\Python27\lib\distutils\dist.py", line 972, in run_command cmd_obj.run() File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\py2exe\build_exe.py", line 243, in run self._run() File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\py2exe\build_exe.py", line 305, in _run dlls = self.find_dlls(extensions) File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\py2exe\build_exe.py", line 389, in find_dl ls self.dll_excludes) File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\py2exe\build_exe.py", line 1021, in find_d ependend_dlls import py2exe_util ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application. After this error occurs I checked my directories and saw that the dist and build folders were created inside the C:\Python27 folder as predicted in the tutorial, but they don't contain any folders or files. I'm assuming this is a problem with something system not being able to locate the proper file, but I have exactly no idea how to solve it. Advice? Enlightenmnet?

Re: [Tutor] Beginner troubleshooting py2exe
Just curious. Going by the last line of the error generated, it says something you tried to import is not a valid windows application. Can you confirm you installed the right py2exe for python 2.7 on Win32? You may want to check that to be sure. The last line of your error stack should point you in the direction to go. Regards.
