I see where you're coming from...
Yes, depth refers to 32bit/16bit etc. the flags are documented, but default to fullscreen.
So...
pygame.display.list_modes(32)
will return a list of all possible screen sizes with 32bit colour depth, like so -
>>> import pygame.display
>>> pygame.display.init
If it's built on pygame then the following should work -
>From http://www.pygame.org/docs/tut/DisplayModes.html
pygame.display.list_modes(depth, flags)
Returns a list of supported display modes with the requested
depth and flags. An empty list is returned when there are no modes.

Hello all,
First and foremost, for those who don't know, www.pythonchallenge.com
is a set of python-related riddles. Now, for those who are past level
six, any sort of hint would be appreciated. Right now, all I know is
what module to use (i think) and that I have to somehow use it on
channel.jpg
To avoid spoilers:
Riddle 7, I've got an 87-item long data structure. Any hints on what
to do with it?

Hey
Can you be a little more specific on how to get certain part of the image to
analyze?
I managed to split it in all its bands (though I don't know what is that)
How can I work only with the gray part??
Thanks

The message is the clue. urlopen returms a fileobject. So you
treat X like an open file. You have to read() from it to get

The problem is that you have to get the content before you can get the
filename or comment of the files.
You have to do something like this
import zipfile
file=zipfile.ZipFile("yourfile.zip")
f=file.getinfo(name_of_the_file_inside_yourfile.zip)
And then you can take the comments and filenames y
