<0> nope
<1> afternoon folks
<1> Does anyone know of a way to convert a string like 'Jan 16 12:00 2006' into unix time?
<1> i suppose i could do a lot of string parsing and convert it to localtime, and then use that
<1> i was hopign there might already be a faster way though
<0> time module
<1> ah! strptime(), great thank you
<2> quick question: I have a script in use for inserting data in to a web page, that scripts call another script wich intern returns data if run in a shell, if the page is brought up the msg I recieve is "sh: weather.py: not found", any help?
<2> I use commands.getoutput() for the second script
<3> yea, the script can't find weather.py, or the python interpreter.. check the bang line
<3> ie, what do you have as the first line of weather.py (#!/usr/local/bin/python)
<2> #!/usr/local/bin/python is in both
<3> are they in the same directory?
<2> yea, got it, it did work if I gave the full path
<3> ok, good
<2> thnx
<3> np
<2> btw where can I find some info on parsing lines, I recall some display.py for webpages but can't recall the location
<3> what do you mean by parsing lines? I've never heard of display.py
<2> well I want to look thru an html and insert data at certain insertion points, the only scheme I have right now is dump the file into a list, look for per say a <!-- Insert Data-->, change the data in the list then output, if there is anything else on that line my script won't find it tho, need a better serach and replace essentially in my script
<3> What you are looking for is a template engine then, yes?
<2> yea
<3> there are plenty of those available
<3> I have used Cheetah and PSP myself
<0> EmPy is another one
<2> k, I'll have to rip it apart, I'm trying to learn the language more instaed of just plugging in stuff, but other code is always good to look at
<4> hello
<4> do any of you have experience running python from a buzi card distro like feather or DSL?
<4> im having some trouble installing .py
<4> does the symbol "|" in bzcat Python-2.4.2.tar.bz2 | tar -xf - mean or?
<5> don't you remember.. we built this city on rock and roll
<4> yah
<4> ok i extracted all and ran ./configure
<4> can someone tell me where i can find "make" and "make install"?
<4> any help here?
<4> pls
<6> if you aren't sure of what you are doing, maybe see if there is a prebuilt install kit for your "o/s and version"
<6> else presuming you are on some sort of *nix; make may be installed try entering: make
<4> yah
<4> i tried that
<4> its linux
<4> i found out the problem
<4> kinda
<4> there still isnt a file called "make" or "make install"
<7> there isn't supposed to be
<7> there's supposed to be a file called Makefile
<7> you should have make on your computer
<4> oh?
<4> root@box: make ????? then what ?
<0> you really need to get a tutorial on Unix or something, you're constantly asking basic Unix questions that have nothing to do with Python
<4> i got it
<4> im not constantly
<4> your constantly trying to be a leet....ive never heard you answer a single ? just criticism
<4> thanks
<0> haha
<0> riiight
<0> I NEVER help people
<0> you're right that I rarely help YOU because you almost never ask PYTHON questions, and this is #python
<4> no..you told me to buy a book on python
<4> thats why my handle istantly annoys you
<4> about a month ago
<0> you've come in here dozens of times
<4> yah
<4> not recently though
<0> you've asked a total of about two Python questions, the rest were all non-Python questions
<0> like the question you're asking right now
<4> thats not true man
<0> uh huh
<4> you said my ?s where to elementary and im not going to learn .py in a day so go read
<4> now im installing .py on my own system so i can learn more
<4> thanks for your help
<0> your question ISN'T ABOUT PYTHON
<4> installing it isnt a ? about python?
<0> like almost all of them never are
<4> ok
<0> your question is how to run make
<0> do you not understand that would apply to ANY program? so it has nothing to do with Python
<4> dude...its on the python.org website...and its real general
<0> are you really not capable of understanding that?
<0> yes, your question is real general
<4> no the instructions on installing it
<0> the instructions are to run make
<0> just like any other Unix package
<0> look
<4> yah
<0> you can keep asking your elementary questions, or you can actually get a tutorial on Unix/Linux and LEARN SOMETHING
<0> otherwise your elementary questions will never end
<4> and you will have wasted all that time explaining that to me
<4> as if i didnt understand what you were saying
<0> yes
<0> helping you would be a waste of time
<4> i do understand
<0> first thing you've said I agree with
<4> why you wanna spend so much time trying to cut me down then just hit ignore?
<0> because you're annoying as hell
<0> go to #linuxhelp
<0> better yet, why don't you to freenode's #python, I'm sure they'd love you there
<4> im in linux-noob
<4> and dsl
<4> but thanks for the suggestion
<8> how do I set a variable to be an integer?
<0> variables don't have types in Python
<0> objects do
<0> are you asking how to convert a string to an int?
<8> no
<8> but error keeps saying unsupported operand type for -: 'str' and 'str'
<0> that means you're subtracting a string from a string, which doesn't make sense
<8> I'm trying to subtract two variables
<0> so presumably you want to convert them to integers and then subtract them
<8> ok, but I'd rather they start out as integers
<0> wherever you get them from, they're not integers
<8> oh
<0> as I said, variables don't have types in Python
<0> if you want to store them as integers, then you need to convert them: int('123')
<8> so if my variable is called 'wate' I use int('wate') ?
<0> no, 'wate' is a string
<0> wate is a variable
<0> y = int(x)
<8> so if my variable is called wate I use int('wate') ?
<0> I just said, no
<0> int('wate') tries to convert the string 'wate' to an integer, which doesn't work
<0> newWate = int(wate)
<8> and then newWate is a number?
<8> not a string
<0> yes
<8> ok, i think i understand
<8> thanx
<0> you might want to read the tutorial
<8> where
<0> python.org
<8> how do I change a string that was imputted by the user into a number?
<8> can sum1 help me?
<9> with?
<8> I'm trying to subtract variables that I got using raw_input and the int function doesn't seem to work
<8> is this right?
<8> rise = raw_input()
<8> int(rise)
<9> well, should be ok
<8> then I say
<8> ri2 = rise + 1
<8> and I get typeError
<9> well, rise is still a string
<9> int(x) returns an int, it doesn't modify x
<9> if you want to convert rise to an int: rise = int(rise)
<8> thanks
<8> once I do that, can I print rise along with other words?
<8> oh. oops, never mind
<8> is there a function to change a string to a float?
<10> float()
<8> thanks
<10> You're welcome.
