Here is another example of formatting a string with %s and %d placeholders. The syntax pretty much follows the C printf() function formatting. [code=python]def visits(name, n): """ adds an s to 'time' if n > 1 """ return "%s visited you %d time%s" % (name, n, ['','s'][n>1]) print( visits("Harry", 1)) …

Microsfoft seems to always copy Apple's efforts, but Windows7 puts them a step ahead. Not sure which computer language pioneered OOP, my guess is Smalltalk (at Xerox), Lisp followed by C++. The Mac OS X used Objective-C, a C extension based on Smalltalk early on.

If you have Python3 you can take a look at cturtle.py and see what this person did to customize the standard turtle.py Free download from: [url]http://www.cs.luther.edu/~pythonworks/PythonContext/cTurtle.py[/url]

American football is a bunch of overweight yahoos in expensive padded gear running into each other, chasing an almond shaped ball. Hardly a game of strategy and, as long as you run into the right direction, no need for brains.

Amazing what steroids can do for you when you are younger, but it all catches up when you get older!

A closer look at some string methods, just having a learning experience and fun with this C# class. This program uses a simple MessageBox to display the results.

I could not resist to put this little utility into a GUI dress. The code shows you that the C# StringBuilder is nicely suited to create the binary string. Also included is a check to assure that the input is an all digit numeric string.

A quick look at finding a substring in a string and giving the position of the substring, if found. The string method IndexOf() has a number of options to explore.

Thanks vegaseat, looks like it may be possible to teach C# after all. I am thinking of a hands-on course, where I can hand out assignments on various subjects, and expect single code file returns. This way I can best evaluate the student's performance and assist in the learning experience.

Here I made a GUI template with a Form, Button and Listbox using MS VCS 2003. MS VCS 2003 still produces a single file usable as a templet, whereas MS VCS 2005 smears files all over the map. Must be some marketing persons idea of market dominance. I took the …

It's spring break, so let's beep in C# code, actually a 440 Hz A. We are just borrowing the Beep() function from the Windows kernel.

There are plenty of things you can code in C# without having to rely on the ever so omnipresent MS-VCS. Here is an example of some typical drawings like lines, arcs, circles, text, curves and gradients you can create with C# and actually retain some control over the program. This …

A very simple C# console program to give you a table of investment (savings) growth over the years.

There must be something wrong at sourceforge, right now every download request for wxpython2.8 flips into the wxPython2.7.1.2 page :) This direct link may work: [url]http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.10.1-py25.exe[/url]

Python code is actually very similar to your Perl code, just a bit more readable: [code=python]# Convert string "HelloPythonWorld" to "HELLO_PYTHON_WORLD" s1 = "HelloPythonWorld" s2 = "" for index, c in enumerate(s1): if c.isupper() and index > 0: s2 += '_' + c else: s2 += c s2 = s2.upper() …
