<0> brb need a cig, just popping 2 shop
<1> http://www.toothpastefordinner.com/060806/fleshlight.gif
<2> sorry, got to go..
<0> no worrys
<0> i kinda realised u biys where dne
<0> cheers for effort :D
<0> what does the __main__ = do ?
<3> __name__ will be __main__ if the script is being called from the user, instead of say, being imported via another python script
<0> ah right ok
<4> it'll be '__main__' (a string), __main__ isn't anything :-)
<3> haha.. yea, what he said.
<0> aparently the only thing missing from the script http://pastebin.com/707355 is somet to call up new playlist now
<0> anyone know if a self.playmedia() would work?
<3> I would also listen to earle and use random.choice() but thats just me
<0> it didnt work
<0> it didnt choose random.



<3> heh, ok
<0> hence me having to go to a backup
<0> kinda nail in coffin on that 1 ;)
<3> well, something tells me it was the code, not the .choice() that didnt work as expected :)
<0> yup..... but how much worce is the code i am using for random? will it be alright?
<0> for now anyway
<3> Be fine
<3> not that big of a deal really.. just makes more sense to use .choice, but its not crucial
<0> any clue how i could lauh new playlist when last 1 finishes? or que it up at least?
<3> I dont know the first thing about xbmc
<0> but u know python ;)
<3> well, how you do it would depend on how xbmc.Player().play() returns.. does it wait for the entire list to play, then return?
<0> 2 secs im just asking
<3> dude, this isnt hard stuff. If you read the docs, you could solve it on your own
<0> lol it is. aparently it returns straight away
<3> ok, then there has to be something that xbmc calls once the play() function returns.. a cl*** function or something
<3> use that call to restart a new playlist
<0> http://www.xbmcscripts.com/downloads/documentation/xbmc.html#Player-isPlayingAudio
<0> one of those?
<3> dude, I am not gonna scour the docs to solve your problem, sorry :)
<3> You should read it and decide
<4> as it stands you know much more about your problem, the solution, and xmbc than we do
<0> lol sorry know im being cheeky. just drinig me mad now :D
<4> xbmc*
<0> yea i know xbmc more, but i dont have teh python knoledge 2 sort it :@ i need to find someone who knows both :)
<4> nobody here knows xbmc, unfortunately
<4> sorry
<0> yea no worrys. cheers guys
<5> hmm
<5> trynig to figure out a good way to dynamically create hundreds of thousands of email addresses, and have them be valid
<4> "valid"?
<5> well.. i have these virtual containers.. i want to generate a unique email address for each of them upon creation so people can provide content to them from a mobile device
<5> so trying to figure out a scalable way of doing that.
<5> without using /etc/aliases :)
<4> uuid
<5> oh, i have a unique name for all of them.
<4> so what's the problem?
<5> i can create the name.. i have to figure out how to actually turn it into an active email alias.. putting a list of a few million email aliases in /etc/aliases doesnt seem like a good idea
<5> i have a feeling sendmail wouldnt handle that too well
<4> you'd want to do that at the MTA level
<4> i.e., write your own SMTP srever
<5> yeah
<5> that's what im working on a solid idea for
<3> why not use an sql backend and have your mta query that?
<5> i could do that
<5> but i dont think postfix has that built in
<3> Postfix supports it. Not sure if its native support or not. Obviously, has to be built against the proper sql libs
<5> hmmm
<5> sys.stdin.read() will read from starndard input until EOF?
<6> Does anyone know a pretty way to convert [{'id': 1, 'name': 'foo'},{'id': 2, 'name': 'bar'}...] into a sequence of tuples ((1,'foo'),(2,'bar')...)
<4> aDict.items()
<4> oh sorry didn't read your example
<6> heh
<4> just iterate
<6> figured
<6> += ot the sequence i guess
<4> iterate in a list comprehension if you think that's "pretty"
<4> .append, yes
<6> cool
<6> Just curious if htere was a pretty way to do it
<4> dict((x['id'], x['name']) for x in aDictList)



<4> scratch the dict if you want to keep the sequence of tuples
<4> [(x['id'], x['name']) for x in d]
<6> ah cool thanks
<5> what does: if x <> y:
<5> do ?
<5> != ?
<7> hi all
<7> coming here from ruby, trying to use python to write blender model export scripts
<7> how do i get the size of a list/array/tuple/whatever?
<7> i've tried foo.size() and foo.length()
<7> also, where in documentation can i find this sort of info on my own?
<5> len(aList)
<5> www.python.org/doc
<7> do you have a direct link?
<7> i'm having trouble figuring out the layout of the docs
<5> http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/
<7> http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/typesseq.html ?
<5> what?
<7> where can i find the actual documentation on len()?
<5> what?
<5> it takes a list and returns the number of items in the list
<5> actually, it takes a -sequence- and returns the number of items in the -sequence-
<5> len([ 1, 2, 3]) == 3
<5> len (xrange(10)) == 10
<7> is there no documentation that says that?
<5> im sure there is.
<7> ya, thats what im looking for plz
<7> cf http://www.rubycentral.com/ref/ref_c_array.html
<5> len is a builtin function, its not an object method.
<5> what more documentation do you need other than..: list([ 'one', 'two', 'three']) == 3 ?
<7> ok, what if i wanted to reverse a list, or join a list or push to a list or pop from a list...?
<5> what?
<7> how do i find out how to do that?
<5> what does that have to do with length?
<5> go read the manual on the list methods
<7> thats what i'm trying to find
<7> :P
<5> http://docs.python.org/tut/node7.html
<5> start there.
<5> and then try reading the manual to learn the language a little better
<7> ok thx
<5> you're quite welcome.
<7> so can i do len() on an integer etc?
<5> no.
<7> or why is it not a method in list cl***?
<5> Python is an interpreter, try running it.
<5> it's a sequence!
<5> you need to read the manual to understand the language a little better.
<7> ok will do
<4> yeah, you're going to get into serious trouble trying to learn a language by trial and error
<7> xihr, you can describe a language relative to others and not ***ume the user is beginning his first language
<7> what i'd like is a "python for c++ users"
<7> s/c++/ruby/ or perl
<4> that still involves learning about the language, not just trying random things
<7> or befunge for all i care
<4> nobody said you had to learn it without reference to any other language
<4> just you're not going to learn it properly by trying random things
<5> goodnight
<5> time to surf
<5> cya xihr
<4> later
<8> er
<8> raleigh: http://benyoonline.com/pqr/PQR2.4.html might be of interest to you
<7> ahh nice
<7> yeah, this is what i've been looking for
<7> thanks
<8> no problem
<9> re
<0> hey guys
<0> anyone remember who it was who helped mne yetserday? was it sander?
<10> whats the command to count the items in an array? i.e as you would do count($array); in php
