Hi there Tutor folks
I need your help with a modified version of the subset sum problem [
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset_sum_problem].
The problem i am facing is a bit hard to describe (as most complex problem

Okay. Since I first joined this list I have played around (as time
permitted) with these editors/IDEs: PyCharm, Eclipse with PyDev,
Notepad++, Emacs, IDLE, PyScripter, IdleX, Sublime Text, and possibly
others. Of course, I have far from mastered any of them, but I think
that I have a sense of what
I'm trying a nose test on a simple prog. Once I got past the huge
traceback in Wing that made me think nose didn't work I realized the
prog tested okay. But I noticed at the end of the traceback nose says
this:
"c:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\nose-1.3.0-py2.7.egg\nose\core.py",
line 200, in runTest
Okay, why is nose saying this run is OK when I purposely screwed it up?
import nose
def stand_and_deliver():
return 52
def stupid_error():
'''This is my stupid error'''
assert stand_and_deliver() == 17
if __name__ == '__main__':
nose.runmodule()
nose result:
Ran 0 tests in 0.0

That's rather harsh. The OP is doing a fine job at investigating new tools, and he's far

Actually, I did notice that tests were zero, but the book I am using
does not mention needing the word 'test' as part of the regex. There
