[Tutor] Read-ahead for large fixed-width binary files?

I've been writing a lot of utility programs for my clients who are users of a certain legacy database application - exporting, reporting, pretty label printing, etc. The database is normalized into 45 files, each of which contains fixed-length records (ranging from 80 bytes to 1024). A few of tho

Re: [Tutor] Read-ahead for large fixed-width binary files?

OK, I feel quite foolish... almost immediately after hitting 'send' I realized I can implement this myself, using 'read(bigsize)' - currently I'm using 'read(recordsize)'; I just need to add an extra loop around my record reads. Please disregard... On Nov 16, 2007 11:10 AM, Marc Tompkins <[EMAIL

[Tutor] Q2: logging not working as expected

I am trying to use the python logging module. At first glance it looks pretty complicated but having Ggooled a lot I have come up with a trial script of ... logging.config.fileConfig("logging.conf") logger = logging.getLogger() logger.critical("Test Message") Where 'loggin.conf' contains ... [l

[Tutor] repeat

Hi All This has probably been asked before but can I get some clarification on why Python does not have a repeat...until statement, and does that mean repeat...until is bad practice? I was trying to get Python on the standard langauge list for my state secondary school system but they say a la
