What is the proper indentation for Python multiline strings within a function? def method(): string = """line one line two line three""" or def method(): string = """line one line two line three""" or something else? It looks kind of weird to have the string hanging outside the function in t...

Hello everyone, I am building a web-based application. The frontend has been designed in Sproutcore. For the backend, we have our own python API which handles all transactions with multiple databases. What is the best way to hook up the front-end with the back-end.

I'm a .NET developer who knows very little about Python, but want to give it a test drive for a small project I'm working on. What tools and packages should I install on my machine? I'm looking for a common, somewhat comprehensive, development environment. I'll likely run Ubuntu 9.10, but I'm flexible. If Windows is a better option, t...

I've been looking at various payment gateways, but most (if not all) of them seem complex and difficult to get working. I also se...
OK I've got 2 really big classes > 1k lines each that I currently have split up into multiple ones. They then get recombined using multiple inheritance. Now I'm wondering, if there is any cleaner/better more pythonic way of doing this. Completely factoring them out would result in endless amounts of self.otherself.do_something calls, whi...

I have a list, let's say, a=[[1,2],[3,4],[5,6]] I want to add to each item in a the char 'a'. When I use: a=[x.append('a') for x in a] it returns [None,None,None]. But if I use: a1=[x.append('a') for x in a] then it does something odd. a, but not a1 is [[1,2,a],[3,4,a],[5,6,a]]. I don't understand why the first call retur...

The problem is that there doesn't seem to be an up to date wrapper for python anywhere around, (pari-python uses an old version of pari) and I'm wondering if anyone knows of some other library/wrapper that is similar to pari or one that uses pari. I'm aware of SAGE...
