thanks much you really helped me if anyone wants here is the program:
n2=2
n3=3
n4=4
n5=5
n6=6
n7=7
l2=[]
l3=[]
l4=[]
l5=[]
l6=[]
l7=[]
while n2 < 1000:
l2.append(n2)
n2=n2+2
while n3 < 1000:
l3.append(n3)
n3=n3+3
while n4 < 1000:
l4.append(n4)
n4=n4+4

okay here "simple" examples about why I have to define callbacks as
strings instead of code.
In XSI, one of the GUI objects that you can create is called a "custom
property". A custom property is basically a floating window in which
there are widgets. Custom properties can define a layout or not.

Greeting!
I'm learning Python through the book "Python Programming, Second Edition
for the absolute beginner" by Michael Dawson. In it, he has the program
"Guess my number" (code pasted below). His challenge is to modify the

Hi there,
I am wondering about a short cut to doing this. Let's say that we have
an array:
dbs= ['oracle','mysql','postgres','infomix','access']
and we wanted to do this:
if 'oracle' in dbs or 'mysql' in dbs or 'bdb' in dbs:

Is there a short way or writing this? S

Yikes! Glancing at the code, I was reading l3, l4, l5, l6 as the numbers
13, 14, 15, 16..(Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen). I'd avoid us

Interesting. So an xrange object is an iterable sequence, not an iterator.

You could use one while statement.

Hello.
I would like to know, how can I read (or sort) a dictionary in a certain
order?
say this is my dictionary-
attrs={u'title': u'example window title', u'name': u'SELF', u'icon':
u'e.ico'}
how could I get the data so that u'name' is read first, u'title' second,
and u'icon' third?
thanks so much

Dictionaries are by design unsorted and indeed may even change
their order during their lifetime.
