Hello,
I am trying to do the exercises in Michael Dawson's "Absolute Beginner"
book. In chapter four ("for Loops, Strings, and Tuples") one of the
challenges is: "Write a program that counts for the user. Let the user
enter the starting number, the ending number, and the amount by which to
count.
which function replaced fork() in Python2.5?
ShivThe idiot box is no longer passé; it's making news and how!

os.fork() hasn't moved, why do you think it was replaced?

I would like to be able to do something along the lines of:
>>> my_list = [1, 2, x for x in range(3,6), 6]
However this doesn't work. Is there any way of achieving this kind of thing?
I tried:
>>> my_list = [1, 2, *(x for x in range(3,6)), 6]
which also doesn't work.
I wrote a quick function

my_list = [1, 2] + range(3,6) + [6]
or, to build it in steps,
my_list = [1, 2]

Hi,
I am working on an implementation of an L-system in Python. I hate
using turtle module since it uses Tk and as my IDE also uses Tk I have
to close my editor before I can test the program. So I am implementing
the graphics using PIL.
Now to the problem.
Say you have a line AB with co-ords (x1

I never talk to mailboxes, nor to other inanimate objects; I was talking

I'm not interested in listening to your ifs about your memory.

My memory is fine, as is my grip on reality as well as courtesy to my
fellow pythonistas.
Good day to you sir.

Hello. I've been playing with Python for a while, and even have some
small scripts in my employ, but I have a bit of a problem and I'm not
sure how to proceed.
I'm starting graduate school (econ!) in the Fall; the school I'll be
attending uses Lotus for email and allows neither forwarding nor

Try the subprocess module.
I think it can do a similar job even on Windows...

How about uysing popen instead?

Hello everyone,
I have pretty much finished hacking on my Thesis and I have come to
the conclusion,
I really do not know how to use Python to it "full" extent. Some of
the things I have really messed up in my implementation are
serialization (specifically sub-classes), classes, and instantiating
Writing your own programs is a good idea. However, this is primarily a
good idea with small programs. For example, when learning Python, I
wrote a set of backup scripts for my computer; I still use them and
they've served me well.
If you want to write 'complete applications,' you're probably bette

Hi,
The sample script below throws the exception "AttributeError: input" rather
than the expected exception "AttributeError: non_existent_attribute".
Please help me write a decorator or descriptor of my own that fixes the
issue.

I know, this might sound stupid, but property is not a decorator. :)
