 | Hi i have been spending the last few days deciding on an IDE that would let me program in Java, C++ and python and notepad++ looked pretty good. The only issue is i cant work out how to make the program run once i have made it. I looked in …  |
 | Re: Starting Python This is an example of how to use the with statement in python 3.0: [code=python] with open('test.txt') as f: print(f.readlines()) # output >> ['test'] [/code] |
| | How about a Noughts and Crosses game with AI so when the computer can it will win and it will block the player from winning if it can. Try make it so there are difficulty setting ranging from easy to beat to nearly impossible. If you want you could add … |
| | Wow a tutorials, i havent seen one of these posted for aages... |
| | If you ever need the values of wx ID's as well as any other constants in wxPython here is a way to do it: [code=python] import wx class MainFrame(wx.Frame): def __init__ (self): wx.Frame.__init__(self,None,title = "ID's and Values", size=(400, 400)) self.text = wx.TextCtrl(self, wx.ID_ANY, style = wx.TE_MULTILINE) for f in wx.__dict__: …  |
| | You really need to use [noparse][code][/code][/noparse] tags otherwise it looks messy. Also, provide a link to where you referenced things from, when referencing directly it is also a good idea to surround the text in quotation marks to indicate this is directly from a reference. Otherwise its good :) |
| | Try using the absolute path, such as "C:\\Documents and Settings\\Paul\\Desktop\\Programming\\Excel\\values.xls" Remember that the double backslash is used so there are no escape characters such as \n used accidentally. There is a way to get around that and that is putting an r in front of the first " sign. That …  |

| | have you tried os.walk. That is a function that will iterate throught the files and sub directories of the folder you are talking about.  |
 | Well i know this may be obvious, but Tkinter is all ready to be used in python 3. So anybody who uses that GUI toolkit will still be able to use it in python 30. |
| | Ah, excellent. threading is a great thing to show people.... Im still stuck for another idea for a tutorial though.. Unless i do wxPython ones. I already have some of those at my site tho :P |
| | heres a bit more: [code=python] running = True sent = raw_input("Enter a sentence") while running: for word in sent.split(): if word[0] in "aeiou": print word + "way" else: print word[1:] + word[0] + "ay" [/code] What i did was ask for a sentence at the start and then i split … |
| | This post is over a year old. Just let it die. |
| | os.makedirs is a really useful function. It makes all of the path that you give it. So if you gave it the path C:\Python\Test\one\two you dont already have to have the path Python, Test, one or two. This is better then os.mkdir because that doesn't work unless you have the …  |
 | ha ha ha! Just need a license first! Are you scared of heights?  |
| | Hi Just download the wxPython Docs and Demos and go to the wxWidgets Reference. I think that might help. |
 | Well im voting for the scanner. Thats how i learnt and thats how i go, i dont find anything wrong with it so i stay that way.. addmitedly i really dont know a thing about Buffered Reader anyway, so it could be loads better for all i know. |
 | yeah i get this error a lot. What i do to fix it is to go Ctrl+Alt+Del and then go to processes and then stop and python process. Hope that works! :) |
| | [QUOTE=cwarn23;1107815]Also I will add on top of that it is possible to use the Firefox adblock on Opera simply by exporting it's block list as a .txt file and add those blocked url matches (with wild cards being * ) into Operas url blocking system. And of course you can …  |
| | Well if you want the python.exe you find it in C:\Pythonxx\python.exe If you want it to be opened by IDLE then you find that in: C:\Pythonxx\Lib\IdleLib\idle.bat If you then check "open with this every time" box then it will do that. Oh and xx is the version of python, so … |
| | Re: python os? Yeah i agree, i think the best that you could do was boot into windows or something and then just start you new 'python OS' being a fullscreen gui that can do things that you want it to. But as for an actual os, it is impossible as python isnt … |
 | Woah, people seem easily offended today. :S But back to the topic at hand, i'm quite annoyed that is talked about how it was a mix of python C++ etc. Because i really couldn't see much of the python in it, it doesn't look like python, it compiles, unlike python … |
| | You should probably document your code to explain what each bit is doing, like why you need the third item in the list, why it need to be converted so many times, and what getch() and msvrt are. But other then that, good snippet |
 | Yeah, i get this a lot with wxPython. Something on the lines of wx.App must be created first. And IDLE will not freeze, but it will not run the code again until you restart it.  |
| | AutoPython did a great tutorial on threading that has been posted in the tutorials section of this forum: [url]http://www.daniweb.com/tutorials/tutorial238590.html[/url] Hopefully that clears anything up if you needed a hand :) |
| | I don't even know if i would trust Ms Paint to measure something to the nearest cm let alone to decimal places. :S |

| | Hi I was wondering if there was any way in which using Python i would be able to move the mouse pointer and make it click at certain x and y values. This would be used in a Macro type machine for the mouse. I have looked around for modules … |
| | I would go back to having the old style that when you clicked on a whole category it gave you ALL of the forums in that category in a list... If you still wanted to implement this new feature that shows all of the recent posts from that category then … |

| | Isn't this the second time you have said you were leaving?? Im confused :P  |
| | You can individually set a sizer/widget to show/hide. You do this by going: [CODE] sizer.Show(False) #or otherwise ExampleTextCtrl.Show(False) [/CODE] Then you can set them to show again by doing the same command with True as the argument. Hope that helps :) |
| | For readability please wrap your code in [code=python] #your code here [/code] it makes it a lot easier to read Can you give us more details of the error, such as what line it was and stuff like that. See that error means your doing something like this: [code=python] s … |

| | [QUOTE]Where are the post numbers so one can easily reference a previous post within the thread???[/QUOTE] Easy, click the "Permalink" see this feature makes more sense. I didn't realise the post number was a link for about 6 months, but people can easily know that permalink means exactly that. |
| | Just wondering now that the new feature that means when you hover over (or close to) someones avatar, the text with rep and solved count comes up. I was finding it annoying how when i help my mouse there for a while i would get a text popup that would …  |
| | Personally i like the site as a whole. I love the bar down the bottom. I think it is a lot cleaner than the old sidebar. Though i still think it needs cleaning up. when i click 'My favourite forums' it doesn't align them very well and it looks really … |
| | Wow, this is all so confusing i must say. I'm on my holiday in the US at the moment. Driving trip around California, as well as driving on the 'wrong' side of the road, all this tipping buisines is making this holidays even more complicated :P we have been sticking … |

 | Re: The New Design Also, its been just one day. There have been things fixed all over the place, things will get better, just give them time. We can't have everything fixed all at once |
 | Re: Listbox coloring Well listboxes are HTML okay, so you can put colours in. I know this works for text as i can see it working in the wxPython demo, i'm not sure that it would work for background. If you look at listctrl's in the wxPython demo, they are similar yet have … |
The End.
