Just out of curiousity (since I really can't say myself), does the code
below import re each time it loops? I ran the same commands and saw
quite similar results (0.176 usec per loop for the first test and 0.993

Chris,
I don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but this site might be useful:

The code base has (last I heard) fallen stagnant, but it may very well
be worth a look as a starting point for your VNC project idea.

Hi Doug,
I'm not a Python guru, but shouldn't you be putting the output of
file.split('\n') into a list, and not back into a string (for clarity's
sake?).
Also, if you have two trailing newlines on the file, your final string
will be '', so you should be doing clean1.append(i[26:40]) in your f
Hrmmm...I do believe you are right, Luke. My bad...it's been a bit
since I actually used this stuff (about 12 years ago in college...heh).
And yes, it would matter, unless you swapped the key functionality
around...but let's keep it simple, yes?
Good thing I'm not programming this project...
My understanding is that an iterator is basically a facade` pattern. If
you aren't familiar with patterns, a facade` pattern basically makes
something really easy to use or convenient. Yes, you can "do it by
hand", and many times that is indeed the preferred method, but sometimes
it's easier
The "something" you're stuck on is the angle the triangle has rotated,
measured in radians. If the concept of radians is not familiar, then
here's a quick review:
There are 2*pi radians in a complete circle (about 6.28)
There are 360 degrees in a complete circle
1 radian is approximately 57 deg
Greetings everyone...
I use Thunderbird, too. I've noticed that it handles threads a bit

my replies inline with the threads...

Hope this helps, and let me know how that works out for you...

By "string variable that contains a name that I want to use as a

only other way to accomplish this (to my knowledge) is in P

Just to give you a pointer about Linux: If you're new, Fedora and

You need to create an instance of the Root class before you can call

The algorithm you use is what causes the infinite loop (it cycles

Hi Mike,
I'm not sure I'm understanding exactly what it is you're looking for
here, but from what I can tell you're looking for something such as:

which would result in an output of 0, 660, 1320 and 1980 (because
