When all you have is a pair of bolt cutters and a bottle of vodka, everything looks like the lock on the door of Wolf Blitzer's boathouse. (Replace that with a hammer and a nail if you don't read xkcd) I currently program Clojure, Python, Java and PHP, so I am familiar with the C and LISP syntax as well as the whitespace thing. I know i...

In terms of programming, I have 2 arrays (vectors) in MATLAB containing the position and acceleration values for x, y, z, yaw, pitch and roll. Because the visualisations in MATLAB are a bit cru...

In my python code I have this line: try: result = eval(command, self.globals, self.locals) except SyntaxError: exec(command, self.globals, self.locals) The command variable can be any string. Hence the python debugger pdb may be started in eval/exec and still be active when eval/exec is returning. What I want to do is make sur...
In the WMI module (yeah, my boss wants me to program in Windows — but at least it’s not in COBOL), it seems that you can access a WMI value either by passing it’s name as a string parameter of a method, blabla=wmithingy().getvalue('nameOfValue') or as a property/method: blabla=wmithingy().nameOfValue() Am I dreaming, smoking bad w...
