I'm running complex tests that create many cookies for different sections of my web site. Occasionally I have to restart the browser in the middle a long test and since the Selenium server doesn't modify the base Firefox profile, the cookies evaporate. Is there any way I can save all of the cookies to a Python variable before terminati...

I would like to convert flat form data to recursive JSON data in python or javascript. This JSON data can later be interpreted by a template engine (google for tempest, it has django like syntax). There are plenty examples to convert flat data to recursive data, but the problem is it can't be a dict or list only. I tried to do it in man...
There's a little thing I want to do in Python, similar to the built-in property, that I'm not sure how to do. I call this class LazilyEvaluatedConstantProperty. It is intended for properties that should be calculated only once and do not change, but they should be created lazily rather than on object creation, for performance. Here's t...
I'm working on a project that needs to support both Python 2.5 and 2.6, and uses sqlite3. I'd like to be able to backup the database from within the program.

I'd like to export a module with values defined in my program and be able to change them from a python script. e.g. in c: int x = 1; in python: import embedded embedded.x = 2 in c: printf("%d",x); output: 2 Is this possible or do I have to export functions to change anything i...
I'm trying to get a better understanding of the difference. I've found a lot of explanations online, but they tend towards the abstract differences rather than the practical implications. Most of my programming experiences has been with CPython (dynamic, interpreted), and Java (static, compiled). However, I understand that there are oth...

Hi, I want to instrument a class via a decorator, to add some instance variables that are specified by the author of the class. I started with the following code, but this just adds class variables and I want instance variables (those that are normally 'declared' in __ init __) What is a pythonic way to do this, while allowing the clas...

When you're iterating over hundreds of lines in a file, what is the most (and least) efficient way to run regular expressions in Python? Specifically, is the following bad form? for line in file: data = re.search('(\d+\.\d+)\|(-\d+\.\d+)\|(.*?)\|(.*?)\|(\d+:\d+\s+\w+)\sTO\s(.*?)',line) one = data.group(1) two = data.group(2) th...

I am try to run a statistical test - a Mantel, looking for a correlation between two distance matrices - in Python, by using a function(?) that has already been written in R, via Rpy2. The R module is "ade4" and it contains "mantel.rtest" from rpy2 im...
