Is `0.0` the troublesome float here?

It's really awkward the way you're using Counter here... you're making new
instances in every lambda (which is not great for memory usage), and then
not actually using the Counter functionality:
return sum(1 for _ in filter(lambda x: Counter(word) == Counter(x.strip()),
fileContent))

The only legal concern is if you're copying challenges directly from the

Don't copy / paste anything and you'll be fine. If you do, check the
license first (it may be open source).

Like Chris mentions, usually you don't write your own stuff in /bin/.
To make what you've written work anyhow, you can run them from inside
/ProjectParent/, not from inside /ProjectParent/bin/.
eg, `python bin/projectgendocs.py`

Note that if all your keys are named 'broadcast', the dictionary approach
is probably not going to work. You'll end up with something like:
{ 'broadcast': 'last_value_in_the_list' }

It looks like this is a pretty common stumbling block, and you need to call
`pygame.font.init()` before the code you pasted.
Also.. the way you've pasted that code has added '||' all over the place.
Not sure what's going on there (some sort of tabs/spaces thing?), but it
makes it extremely hard to
out = stdout.read()
if '3102EHD-Lanka-1108' in out:
s.exec_command('export DISPLAY=:0.0; cd /Downloads/Hourly/win.sh')
sftp = s.open_sftp()
sftp.get('/Downloads/Hourly/3102EHD-01108/3102EHD-01108.png',

sftp.close()

You could definitely achieve that modularity, if the parent package knows
(by convention) where to look for sub-modules. I'm not sure there's a
built-in mechanism, unless you want to use 'import' in a clever way. It
feels like that's more of a RPM/.deb challenge than a Python challenge.

this forms a list of integers

[0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
what I think you want is something like:

[[0], [0], [0], [0], [0]]
(a list of lists)
>>> foo = [[0] for i in range(5)]
>>> foo[3].append('bar')

[[0], [0], [0], [0, 'bar'], [0]]

If you get deeper into processing emails, you might check out
http://lamsonproject.org/ . I wasn't fond of the whole thing, but if you
dig into the src there is some pretty good code for handling malformed MIME
structures and unicode issues in a sane way.

The "from" quirk is because it gets parsed as a header, I think.
Sending is pretty simple, you should be OK. It may be worth setting up an
outgoing-only mail server like postfix that only listens in localhost,
gmail can be fussy about quotas.

You demonstrate skill at writing python by writing python. If you don't

One project is fine, unless your competition has finished two. Start at
least with one script in each language that you want on your resume that
does some sort of analysis on a set of data.
With all due respect to Amit, if you are going for academic work don't
bother with tests or documentation,
you can either manually manage the memory with `del cnt` or let the built

In your code, you're not actually inserting the contents of the file into
your MIME part (you're only constructing headers), which is why the
content-length is not right.

The general idea is to write tests that use your code in realistic ways and
check the results. So if you have a function that takes an input and

If you made an effort to strip out parts of your code, it would
probably show you where the bottlenecks are.
You say that the large map is not the problem, but do you really know?

In this situation, the network connection is almost certainly the
bottleneck; maybe CPU speed, if they are drastically different, but
it seems like you're running relatively comparable hardware. RAM is
almost never a *speed* bottleneck, until you start working with

If the guess is larger than the number, your code will never prompt for a

you want to use `expense +=` instead. Instead of adding it to the

I hate to jump on this one a little late, but even getattr() is kind

For setting up shell scripts or CLIs, the usual route is the optparse module.

I think OOP makes it easy for new programmers to set up programs, and
it can make for some pretty neat English looking code, but a more
functional approach generally makes for much leaner, faster performing
