I see you could pipe your output to 'python -mjson.tool', but how do I achieve the same within my script? TIA. ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Re: [Tutor] Class Attribute "Overloading?"

2007-08-16 Thread Vincent Gulinao
I see, I think "property" is what I'm looking for. But how would you design it yourself (you said it's a little ugly, I love to hear better ideas)? My only concern is to avoid unnecessary DB accesses (or any other expensive processes). Thanks. On 8/16/07, Tiger12506 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >

[Tutor] Class Attribute "Overloading?"

2007-08-15 Thread Vincent Gulinao
Sorry, I just started experimenting on Python classes... Is there any way a reference to a class attribute ([class].[attribute]) be treated like a method ([class].[method]())? I have a class with DB component. Some of its attributes are derived from DB and I find it impractical to derive all at o

[Tutor] Displaying in columnar / tabular form

2006-08-24 Thread Vincent Gulinao
Anyone knows a neat way of displaying output in columnar/tabular form? Say you have a list with both dictionary and string members; you want to print the data, dictionary being one element per line, and the string on the next "column" aligned on the first element of the dictionary

[Tutor] manipulating list of lists

2005-10-24 Thread Vincent Gulinao
I have a list of lists of constant width (2 rows). I need to: 1. delete sub-lists with None element 2. sort it by any sub-list index say: [ ['c','d'], ['g',None], ['a','b',], ['e','f'] if sorted using 2nd index: [ ['a','b'], ['c','d'], ['e','f'] ] (same result for 1st index for this example) TIA

[Tutor] neat join

2005-10-24 Thread Vincent Gulinao
is there any simple syntax for joining strings such that if any (or all) of the params is white space or None, it won't be included in the resulting string? e.g. str1, str2, str3 = "foo", "bar", None, if delimiter is " " would result to "foo bar"; str1, str2 = None, None would result to None. TIA

[Tutor] multiple assignment

2005-10-17 Thread Vincent Gulinao
I was fascinated when I learned that I can do this in Python: (str1, str2, str3, rest) = str.split(" ", 3) Later that I realize that str could contain values of less than 4 strings, in which case it would complain something like -- ValueError: unpack list of wrong size. Now I don't want to
