    How to put Variable Value in a List Name?

    Why not create a list of lists ? blx = [] # Create an empty list for i in range(10): blx.append( [1,2,3,4] ) # Print all the lists: print blx # Print the 4th list: print blx[3]

    Newbie to python

    Is there a python release that will run under DOS ? Yes. http://members.lycos.co.uk/bdeck/pythond.htm 540k limit I haven't tried, but my guess is that Python is not better than perl on memory usage. I think the DOS Python version is compiled with a Dos extender, and is not subject to the 640...

    UDP Sockets

    mmmm... strange. I did not play with UDP under Python, but odds are that UDP works under Windows with Python. (There are several UDP-based Python program which run under Windows.) Basically, you use the example below: http://python.org/doc/current/lib/socket-example.html Except that you use...

    os.remove() -> Permission denied

    If the system says "Permission denied", it's either because the user you are logged in does not have the rights to delete this file, or this file is still in use by another program. Changing this file to "not protected" state involves either granting you rights on this file...

    A problem in choosing language

    And at O'Reilly, I also read: « It’s a highly adaptable (and scalable), full-featured, object-oriented programming language that’s suitable for a wide variety of jobs. It's stable and mature, has large and powerful standard libraries, and integrates extremely well with C, C++, or Java code, and...

    A problem in choosing language

    It is commonly admitted that developping in Python is faster than in Java or C++ because these languages are more verbose. Bruce Eckel, member of the ANSI C++ Comitee, author of several books ("Thinking in Java","Thinking in C++"...) wrote: "I feel Python was designed...

    Database lookup problem

    He didn't quote the value. This should be: def lookupHdw( barcode ): (hdwLook, success) = conn.Execute("SELECT emp FROM table1 WHERE CPU = '" + barcode+ "'") Response.Write( hdwLook.Fields("emp").Value ) And for security reason, he'd better protect his...

    Python ADO

    I found this link in my archives: http://www.e-coli.net/pyado.html Note that instead of ADO, you can also use ODBC to access databases: http://sebsauvage.net/python/snyppets/index.html#odbc You can also manipulate SQL Server 2000 from Python using SQL-DMO COM objects (and script whatever you...

    Can someone please help me?>

    Ok. Got it. When you say: class clic: list=[] y=clicbox() You're saying: "list and y are class attributes, not objects attributes." This means that there will be only 1 list object shared among all clic class instances. And it's the same for y. That's why crap.printclic(0)...

    Regular Expression Syntax

    Hello ! First remark: You'd better move the re.compile() out of your loop so that the regular expression is not recompiled for each line of the input file. Second remark: I think regular expressions are overkill here. string.find() or .startwith() methods would be better suited for what you...

    adding a path to windows path environment

    Each time a new process starts, it inherits its environnement from the application which started it. Thus your Python script inherits the environement of the system. But altering it (by manipulating os.environ) will only alter its local copy of the system environement, not the system...

    open count

    If you want to track how many time "open_try.py" has been run, you should put the following lines at the beginning of "open_try.py": counterfilename = 'open_try.count' try: file=open(counterfilename,'r') counter = int(file.readline()) file.close() counter +=...

    any way to read/write registry info on Windows System
