Greetings!
Below is the announcement we've just made this morning to CLP about
our upcoming Python course. Please forward this msg to anyone whom
you think would be interested or would benefit from Python training
courses. This includes Plone, Zope, Django, TurboGears, and Mailman

Dear fellow list members,
Below is the announcement we've just made this morning about our
upcoming advanced Python course, May 17-19, 2006. This advanced course
will be offered again in Nov 2006. In Aug 2006, we will have another
intensive introduction
> > prefix = os.path.commonprefix(filter( bool, lines ))
that is an interesting and yes, not very optimal way of saving the set
of non-blank lines. the commonprefix() function takes a list of
pathnames and returns the longest prefix that all strings have in
common, presumably for disk filena
we are all happy to help. it is really good that you were able to get
it working so fast! also, if you want to do any kind of pattern
matching with * or ?, then check out the "glob" module.

hi patricia,
it would be really helpful to see an example of 'result' before and
after the call to calc_numbers() as well as the code for calc_numbers
if possible.
this will likely reveal the problem that you are having.

looks good for your 1st program. some improvements that i can think of:
1. notice how you repeat blocks of code? specifically, i mean: (ask a
question, get the answer, validate the answer). since this is all
similar code, it's a great place for you to learn what a loop is.

almost a year and suddently breaks, that can only be explained by 1 or
2 things:

as alan mentioned, it's all about namespaces. the "global x" you have
in the above piece of code doesn't do anything (because you're already
or still in the global [name]space).

this looks like it'll also accept invalid data, such as "1/" ... i
think there's some more tweaking involved to get it so that if there's
a '/', there is at least one digit afterwards.
