Indeed - as I now have a function:
def nsplit(s, n):
return [s[i:i+n] for i in range(0, len(s), n)]
Incidentally I am currently going with:
def nsplit(s, n):
I am trying to write a function that takes a directory
name and describes the contents of the directory (file
name and size) recursively. Here is what I have
written so far:
import os, os.path
def describeDirectory(directory):
if os.listdir(directory) == []:
print "Empty directory!"
Thanks to Kent Johnson, & David Heiser and everyone else. Looks like i
was most of the way there...hehe... David Heiser gets special bonus
points for actually understanding my initial mysterious query.

I think the follow use of groupby is from Raymond Hettinger from ASPN recipes.
The batch() function will return an iterable to you in user-definable sized

I am looking at Tix and I am stuck with what seems to be a simple problem:
I want to bind the cancel buttom of a ExFileSelectBox to a routine in my class,
but can not make it work.
I guess the problem is the same for any binding of tix sub-widgets, so if
someone could send some sample code.

I think the confusion was about what input range to use. From your code
it looks like you want to use just the actual range

Hello all,
Further to my previous puzzling, I've been working out the best way to
chop a string up into n-sized words:
I'm aware that I can use a slice of the string, with, eg, myWord[0:4].
I am also aware that I can do blob = myWord.pop(0) to take (and
remove) the first character. I can botch

Here's something you might find useful they've just started a series

The xor bitwise operator works wi
Hi Kevin,
Do you mean:?
1)take the highest value in the list hval, take the lowest value in the
list lval
2) pass top and bottom NEW values for the list: ntop nbot
3) then build another list where hval is replaced by ntop, lval is
replaced by nbot, and everything else is geometrically scaled

Hello,
I'm trying to work on some programs to help me understand ciphers and
ultimately cryptography. I've understood so far, that a simple form
of bit-level cryptography is to split the original message into chunks
the same length as a 'key' and then do an xor. I'm trying to keep
