Comments:

<0> I saw six related chemistry programs, each program of which was a chapter of a story, and the comments and variables all linked to that story. ****ing pain in the ***.
<0> "Go fix DRAGON, it's got a problem in the damsel area."
<1> St_George.kill(Dragon)
<1> or Dragon.burninate(CountrySide())
<1> ill stop now
<2> homestar references are perfectly good variable names
<3> have you seen the 'California Coding' c code using precompiler directives? funny stuff :)
<3> someone wrote a quicksort but used precompiler directives to replace slang with code. So it had code lines like 'Do some ****, yo' :)
<1> diethylamine nice
<4> Hey if I wanted a list of strings based on a number how would I do that? Say inputing three will return filename001,filename002,filename003.
<0> eugman, [ "filename%03d" %x for x in range(1, 4) ]
<1> for i in range(3): print 'filename%03d' % i
<4> What does the 03d do?
<0> Zero-pads for three total digits.
<0> %03d
<4> k



<4> thanks
<3> hey, that formatting is cool
<1> >>> t = lambda num: ['filename%03d' % i for i in range(1, num+1)]
<1> >>> t(3)
<1> ['filename001', 'filename002', 'filename003']
<0> Gee, it's only been in printf() for over 30 years. ;)
<4> lambda?
<0> pjarks is getting fancy on you.
<0> It's like defining a sort of function right there, to give you your result.
<1> lambda allows you to create single line 'anonymouse
<1> argh
<1> 'anonymous' function
<5> hello
<6> pythons lambda is weak, but its still nice to have it at all
<1> handy for things like sort()
<4> Sorry for my ignorance but what is an anonymous function?
<6> yeah
<6> sort(key=lambda blah blah
<1> eugman normally, you define a function with def func_name: .....
<1> triplah key is 2.4 only i think?
<6> pjarks: yeah i use 2.4
<6> def add(a,b):
<6> return a+b
<1> eugman so if you wanted to say, sort a list of tuples by the second element, you could do
<6> instead of calling add
<6> you can just say
<1> def my_sort(a, b): return cmp(a[1], b[1])
<6> lambda a,b:a+b
<1> mylist.sort(my_sort)
<4> What is the benefit of that?
<7> hi everybody. i have a question about doctest. are they the right tool for the test driven development cycle (test, fail, code, p***)?
<1> lambda allows you to do mylist.sort(lambda a, b: cmp(a[1], b[1]))
<7> i know unittests are
<6> eugman: sometimes its stupid to define a function for something trivial.
<1> whats a doctest?
<4> ah k
<5> how hard is it to write internet apps with Python?
<5> I'm new to programming and I'm just starting to get into Python, it looks like a really elegant language
<1> Maks0n how long is a peice of string?
<5> 2 meters
<6> ahha
<1> good, your not american
<5> ;)
<1> metres tho
<5> oh yeah, oops
<1> but we can work with that
<3> maks0n: web apps or ip servers?
<0> 'you're'
<8> pjarks: I resent that! I'm american but I love metric
<5> well im just getting into the whole programming and linux thing, its really interesting
<1> hari` internet slang :)
<5> ip servers
<8> ;)
<1> Maks0n you can start at CGI level, all the way up to that whole rails thing, through to Zope etc
<4> Oh come on String should clearly be measured in furlongs!
<5> wow I have no idea what you just said, but hey, I'll get there :D
<5> so where are you all from?
<4> Stinkin' metrics
<1> qwe do they teach metric in schools?
<3> maks0n: you can write a web server in python in 7 lines, and call a web service in about 3



<0> pjarks, yes :P
<5> cool
<4> Metric system is mostly limited to science for common use.
<5> I heard there was a webserver written in python, whats the name of it? I just want to have a look at the source for fun
<8> pjarks: don't know, but anything that's in base 10 is good in my book
<6> Maks0n: short answer, python on the web is not as trivial as php for example
<1> Maks0n cgi starts at, #!/usr/bin/env python; print 'Content-type: text/plain'; print; print 'hello!!'
<0> Ugh.
<4> Qwe how do you go about meauring a third of a meter to cut?
<3> triplah, web applications are different than servers
<2> Maks0n: there are many webservers written in python
<6> diethylamine: indeed
<5> a basic one? Just so i can look at some source
<1> eugman the same way you measure 2.5 inches
<6> doesnt django come wih a webserver?
<1> yeah
<6> turbogears does for sure
<4> But my point is if I want a third of a foot I measure four inches. If you want a thrid of a meter you ned 33.33333333333333333333333333 centimeters.
<9> I have a command line like enviroment, and currently the command is ran according to whatever is in the variable "commands", and then it is p***es through a series of if statements, I think the if statements are kind of rediculus since there are a lot of commands, is there another way I could maybe do this" I have tried things like "%s"() % (command), command()...and so forth (I knew these wouldn't work but i had to try). Any suggesti
<9> ons?
<1> eugman what if i want to cut a 5th of a foot ?
<0> Yawgmoth7, dispatch table.
<8> eugman: take a stick a meter long and trisect it... voila
<9> dispatch table? :o
<6> Yawgmoth7: you mean like a switch?
<4> The babylonians had it right. Units of 60.
<4> heh
<1> Yawgmoth7 a mapping of 'commands' to functions
<8> eugman: hehe
<6> wtf is a dispatch table compared to a switch?
<6> oh
<6> :)
<1> dispatch = { 'add': my_add_func, 'subtract': subtract_func }
<9> Then how would they be executed?
<1> while not_done: current_cmd = next_command(); dispatch[current_command](arg1, arg2)
<9> Hmm
<6> nice
<2> read up on the Cmd module
<1> you might want to extend your dispatch table to include info about how many arguments each 'command' requires etc
<2> err, cmd module, with the Cmd cl***
<9> Well..pjarks, it's not exactly like that
<9> I mean like
<9> helu thar merl
<9> But
<9> anyways
<1> you lost me at helu
<9> lol
<10> lol
<10> :D
<9> Sorry, that wasn't part of the code
<9> <_<
<11> this is a "LOL" free zone
<9> Your an lol free zone
<9> xD
<9> you're*
<11> i am a datazone
<1> think of the children!
<6> type "http//something" in your firefox address bar
<6> no semicolon
<6> er
<6> colon
<9> triplah: Cool
<9> Let me look at the cmd module
<6> you think thats for people who don't know how to type addresses in properly?
<1> triplah mine becomes http://http//something
<2> so does mine
<1> resulting in a proxy error
<6> windows?
<1> yeah
<9> LAME
<6> ah
<9> Windows
<10> Windows?
