I am using an intel iMac with OS -X 10.4.8.
It has Python 2.3.5.
My issue is that I have a lot of text ( about 500 pages at the
moment) that I need to parse so that I can eliminate info I don't
need, break the remainder into fields and put in a database/spreadsheet.
See example next:
A.-C.
Hey,
I'm a rather new programmer, but it seems to me the digital to roman should be
coded:
While Digital_Input > 0:
If Digital_Input > 1000 then: Roman = + M, Digital_Input = - 1000
elif Digital_Input > 900 then: Roman = + C, Digital_Input = - 900
...
Now if someone could please clarify [or forwar

Tkinter is the standard Python GUI (IDLE is built using it).

Hello all
I downloaded Python 2.5 (final release) from python.org. I am trying to

the current working version i have of python is 2.3 (also built as a
framework)
It goes through the "./configure" part ok, but the "make install" produces
the following errors :

Could it be that the 2.3 version is still around and that you are
trying to launch the 2.3 version of IDLE
2.3 is still around indeed, but i launched the IDLE from the python
2.5folder, so i don't think that was the problem.
on teh other hand - i discovered that when i type "python2.5" in teh
terminal window it launches indeed the python 2.5, but when running a
script from the command line it goes to

Did you download the MacPython 2.5 distribution? You should find an
"Update shell profile.command" file, which you can run. I believe once
you do that, you will be set up so that IDLE will launch and you will
default to version 2.5.

No ideas there. I wish I could help, but I am new at this.
I did stop using IDLE though in favor of iPython. I don't know if an
end-around would solve all the problems you have been encountering
though.

All that program does is make sure that the bin directory in

lo there all,
i was wondering how to make a python script accept command line arguments.
i mean, i have used python scripts from the command line in linux and
passed something to it and it knows what to do.
like in a function, if i want to do something like this
def add_two_numbers(a, b):
x
Roman Numeral - To - Digital Converter
So far, I'm coming along OK with the code that runs the conversions,
assuming the user gives me a proper input. (A string of capital
letters I, V, X, L, C, D, M)
However, not every input someone gives the function is goign to be
properly formatted like
This is my first time replying to the list, so excuse me if this goes
out wrong.
Anyhow, you're looking for sys.agrv. sys.agrv is a list of the
arguments, with sys.agrv[0] being the script name.
Code:
##
import sys #sys.argv is part of the sys module
def add_two_numbers(a, b):
x =
#start of triple-letter processing block
if len(roman_input) > 2 and roman_input[0] + roman_input[1] +
roman_input[2] == "MMM":
digital_result += 3000
roman_input = #something to remove those "M"'s from the string
continue

There are several ways, depending on what exactly you want to achieve.
In this case, it looks like you're after "string slicing". The

And, when you needs to process command line arguments and flags and
options become more complicated, be sure to look at modules getopt

OK, will do. Looks like my future will involve more of this kind of thing.
