I think list comprehensions may give me this, but I'm not sure: any elegant solutions in Python (2.6) in general for selecting unique objects in a list and providing a count? (I've defined an __eq__ to define uniqueness on my object definition). So in RDBMS-land, something like this: CREATE TABLE x(n NUMBER(1)); INSERT INTO x VALUES(1...
This VBA macro works: Sub Draw_Graph() Columns("A:B").Select ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddChart.Select ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=ActiveSheet.Range("$A:$B") ActiveChart.ChartType = xlLine End Sub This Python (near) Equivalent almost works: from win32com import client excel=client.Dispatch("Excel.Application") excel.V...

In 2.6, if I needed to accept input that allowed a percent sign (such as "foo % bar"), I used raw_input() which worked as expected. In 3.0, input() accomplishes that same (with raw_input() having left the building). As an exercise, I'm hoping that I can have a backward-compatible version that will work with both 2.6 and 3.0. When I us...

I'm trying to decide on which architecture to choose for developing Django 1.0.x through Django 1.2.1. I've managed to get MySQL, MySQLdb, PIL, and Python 2.65 installed on Snow Leopard using x86 64-bit builds, but I'm curious as to whether or not there is a definitive answer to this question at the moment, and if so, why? Thank you! Mi...
Ok, I need to be able to edit the file comments in .rar files from python. I can already view the comments using UnRAR. However, I need to embed metadata in the files in a way that is preserved over multiple file systems (e.g. alternate datastreams are out), so I can't really think of any other alternatives. rarfile seems like it might...
Basically, what is the best way to go about storing and using dense matrices in python? I have a project that generates similarity metrics between every item in an array. Each item is a custom class, and stores a pointer to the other class and a number representing it's "closeness" to that class. Right now, it works brilliantly up to ...
Hey Everyone, If you've seen my previous post you'll know im working on an airline program using Python. Another issue that poped up was that after I launch one flight, it calculates the duration of the flight and replaces the button which is used to launch the flight. But when I buy another aircraft, it changes both flight statuses to ...

I downloaded the Python 2.6.5 source, built it for OS 10.6.4 64-bit, and installed numerous dependencies. I opened a big project our team has been working on recently, ran the unit tests, and one of the tests failed because I had installed Python built using UCS-2 (I didn't know this was the default of OS X!) In a nutshell: I didn't sup...
