Python 2.4
self-study with Python Programming: An Introduction to Computer Science by Zelle
I am trying to import a program that has a conditional execution statement at
the end so I can troubleshoot individual modules in the main() program.
Below is the textbook example program. When I try t
I've been cheating: comment out the conditional statement and adjust the
indents. But, how do I make my program run with if __name__ == 'main': main()
at the end? I thought I understood the idea to run a module called directly
but not a module imported. My program isn't running, though.

I'm practicing with lists. I was looking for documentation on sorting with
cmp() because it isn't immediately clear to me how comparing items two at a
time can sort the entire list. Identify max or min values, yes, but not sort
the whole list. So, the Sorting HOW TO (Dalke, Hettinger) posted
This makes sense. Thanks.
No question on the specific code, I was just thinking I should show I'd done
any experimenting with the methods
Hi Patti,

Could someone clarify "Modularize code rather than copying and pasting?"
thanks

Hi! My script sorts correctly on all my test arrays. My accumulator variable
to count the number of comparisons returns nonsense. I'm counting the (length
