Hi Tutors,
I'm trying to create a simple GUI using pyqt4 in which pressing a button
causes execution of a system command. Here's the code, please help me out. I
can't figure out whats wrong. Thanks
import sys
import os
from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtCore
class TestGui(QtGui.QWidget):
def __init_
(dial, QtCore.SIGNAL('clicked()'), QtGui.qApp,
QtCore.SLOT(os.system('wvdial')))
TypeError: argument 1 of SLOT() has an invalid type
Was that helpful?

I implemented a dial function and passed it to the QtCore.SLOT(), which
worked fine. Thanks everyone!

I am learning python and need guidance for writing some code. I've written
a simple program (with pointers from people) that parses an tv show xml
feed and prints their values in plain text after performing some string
operations.
[CODE]feed = urllib.urlopen(rssPage) #rssPage: address of xml feed
Sorry for the formatting. Added return statements to both functions. Adding
return [x, y] to get_value func. That solved the problem. Thank you! :)

Hi,
a = ['Ron', 'Harry', 'Hermoine']
b = ['25th oct', '27th oct', '29th oct']
c = ['Charms', 'DADA', 'Potions']
I want to print like this:
Ron - 25th oct
Charms
Harry - 27th oct
DADA
Hermoine - 29th oct
Potions
The items in each list are populated dynamically so I don't know how many
items will be
My program downloads multiple entry values from the net. I'm trying to
combine them in a list in a particular sequence.
l = []
feed1 = urllib2.urlopen(rssPage1)
tree1 = etree.parse(feed1)
x = tree1.xpath("/rss/channel/item/title/text()")
y = tree1.xpath("/rss/channel/item/pubDate/text()")
z = tree
l.extend does work. Thanks!

Hi,
I'm trying to create a list (L) from items of different lists (a, b, c) but
in a specific order (L = [[a1, b1, c1], [a2, b2, c2]...etc])
L = []
a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
b = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
c = [2009, 2010, 2011, 2012]
for x, y , z in zip(a, b, c):
L.extend([x, y, z])
print L
But this outputs:

Hi,
a = [['jimmy', '25', 'pancakes'], ['tom', '23', 'brownies'], ['harry',
'21', 'cookies']]
for i in a:
if (i[1] == '25' or i[1] == '26'):
print 'yes'
else:
print 'Not found'
This prints:
yes
not found
I want it to print "yes" for each positive match but nothing for a negative
m
print *b*
else:
print 'Not found'
This will output:
*jimmy*
*Not found*
*Not found*
*
*
How do I print positive matches (*jimmy*) only and not (*Not found*). I
also want *Not found *to print only *once *if there are no positive matches.
On Wednesday, October 24, 20
Thanks!
If not matched: < does it mean that "if the value of matched is not
true, print Not found"?
print "Not found"

Hi,
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys
x = 'Saad is a boy'
def main(x):
a = []
b = x.split(' ')
for item in b:
a.append(item)
print a
if __name__ == '__main__':
x = sys.argv[1]
main(x)
How can I make this program run with the default value of x if I don't
specify an argument at the command line
I've come up with this:
try:
sys.argv[1]
x = sys.argv[1]
main(x)
except IndexError:
main(x)
It works but seems hackish.

I don't think using SSL works with hotmail. I tried using:
smtplib.*SMTP_SSL*("smtp.live.com", 587)

That gave this error:

smtp = smtplib.SMTP_SSL(smtp_srv, 587)

Using port 25 with SMTP_SSL gives:

This stops the loop after 30s but the program uses about 12% cpu. What
would be a more efficient way to do this? (p.s. i'm on python 2.7.3)

time.sleep(30) will pause the program for 30s. I want to the run the

This will print 'yes' after every 10s. I want to print 'yes' for 10s, then

I don't know what I'm doing wrong here. Ive tried copy-pasting the line.
I've tried entering underscores manually. doesn't work.

Steven,
You're right about Mark's email. I didn't get the humor and thought the
remark was kinda tough on me. You correctly pointed out his intent. So my
apologies to Mark.
As for the underscores, what happened is that *I didn't voluntarily add the
underscores to begin with. *If you read the emai

I added *len(new_message) + len(add) <= MAX_LENGTH *to the outer while loop
instead of inner which threw an error. Your code works as expected. Thanks
a lot!
