 | By putting "s = d / t" before the conditionals would only calculate speed - but what happens when you give speed and distance for example? It wouldn't calculate time. You have to put each individual case within the appropriate conditional branch like Lardmeister did. P.S. This kind of program … |
| | Is there a file in the [I]C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages[/I] folder named [I]mechanize.pth[/I] or a folder named [I]mechanize[/I] in that directory? There should be, and the data in [I]mechanize.pth[/I] should simply say "mechanize" (without the quotes).  |
 | Re: Starting Python For Python 2.x: People seem to overlook the usefulness of built-in functions for handling common issues with lists. A lot of times, [ICODE]filter[/ICODE], [ICODE]map[/ICODE], and [ICODE]reduce[/ICODE] can easily and efficiently serve typical purposes that most people attempt without these. Here's an example of their usage (I use lambda expressions in … |
| | I don't know if this idea has already been added, but beginners can create an address book. That was the first real project I undertook. Ask the user for: name, address, phone, cell, fax, etc. Then store the data in a .txt file. Let the user search people in the … |
| | The variable [icode]timesflipped[/icode] used for the while loop is undefined before the comparison [icode]while timesflipped < 100:[/icode]. This script should just return a NameError and not run. Here's a fixed version: [code=python] import random coin_heads, coin_tails, times_flipped = 0, 0, 0 timesflipped = 0 # <-- here's what I added. … |
| | I'd say split the string into a list and use the filter method: [code=python] file_Name1 = 'abc123de' # store that string as a list of characters L1 = list(file_Name1) # call filter on it using a lambda expression L1 = filter(lambda x: x in '1234567890', L1) # L1 now = …  |

| | Hooray! I got pyHook working with Python 2.6 for Windows. I just downloaded the source and edited a few things, hacked it together and built. As far as I know, it all works with 2.6 :D You'd just need to manually install it to your Python's site-packages directory if you …  |
| | Firefox 3! I just can't stand IE for the issues I get with it when writing stuff for the web. It always happens that IE buggers up something by implementing it in a non-standard way, which [I]always[/I] complicates things. And for this reason, I shall never show it any love …  |
| | Re: python os? If you mean by "Python OS", an operating system that's built purely on Python, then no. As far as I know, that wouldn't work anyway because the interpreter to run Python needs an OS to run on in the first place (?). Correct me if I'm wrong though... And I'm … |

| | I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this, but I've noticed a large request for pyHook for Python 2.6. I had a solution to this in a recent thread [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread203368.html"]here[/URL], but people are most likely going to miss that. I built pyHook's source for use with … |

| | First, your whole_thing variable should be [icode]text_file.read()[/icode] if you want to return all the contents as a string. Or [icode]text_file.readlines()[/icode] if you want to return all the contents as a list of each line. Change this and see if that fixes any problems with your code. I don't fully understand … |
| | Hello, I was wondering how to go about having a redirect of stdout with Python take effect in a C extension. My python script redirects sys.stdout into a file handle created with [i]open(...)[/i], but within the function in my compiled C-extension, any output ([i]printf[/i], [i]puts[/i], etc) is still given to … |
| | Re: Leaders @Aia You just strike me as an extremist for your beliefs (Conservative right?). And I hate extremists because they only lead to problems, such as the ones caused by religious fanatics, or by those who are too damn bull-headed to try to even [I]consider[/I] a different viewpoint. You fall into …  |
| | Hello! I have a question in regards to [I]malloc[/I]/[I]calloc[/I] and [I]free[/I] in C. What I'm unsure about is the "depth" (for lack of a better word) that [I]free[/I] operates to.

| | Hello EAnder - welcome to DaniWeb. I myself only got into Python about a year ago, after deciding to give up on Java and C++; luckily I found that Python is fast, easy, and most importantly, fun. Anyways, to get back on topic, I created the basis for a sort … |
| | C++ is among the top of the widely used languages for games. It retains the quick execution speed of C, and brings in much needed and required things such as objects and class inheritance ([URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming"]OOP[/URL]). Naturally, you'd be using graphics libraries with this, such as OpenGL or DirectX. Possibly even … |
| | Hello, I know you probably get quite a few threads asking this, but the DaniWeb search didn't pull up what I was looking for. So here we go: I have a page that I've made as "private" by including my access control script at the top. The access control script … |

| | Sneekula's correct. You're storing each item in the [I]inComments[/I] like so: [icode](lineNumber, lineText)[/icode]. So you just need to access the correct index of the tuple, the same way you would access an item in a list (or Array in Java); just use the square brackets to get the value from … |
| | Python is a good choice for easy-going desktop application development. Of course, you're going to want to get adjusted to and familiarized with classes, methods/functions, etc. before starting on GUI projects. And for GUIs, I'd still really suggest wxPython over Tkinter. I personally can't stand the non-native look of Tk's … |

| | Hello, I am currently trying to figure out some event stuff with Javascript. I have the page capturing all [I]onkeypress[/I] events by calling my function [I]keyPress[/I], and passing the event as an argument. The key presses get passed to a text field that I have on the page (even if …  |
