I'd like this class to act like a list. It's data resides in the attribute self.data. If I have an instance, pp = population, does defining __getitem__ mean I can refer to pp instead of pp.data? Or is it the defining of __repr__ that does that? Would deriving this class from list instead of object provide me with 'pop'. Right now I n...
Hi all, In Python and GAE, I would like to ask how to get the parameters of a query string in the url. As I know, the query_string part returns all the part after the "?" in the url. So what I have to do is to split the query string with "&", and use the variables. Is there any other convinient way to manage the query string? How do yo...
Is there a C# analog for Python's function decorators? It feels like it's doable with attributes and the reflection framework, but I don't see a way to replace functions at runtime. Python decorators generally work this way: class decorator(obj): def __init__(self, f): self.f = f def __call__(self, *args, **kwargs): ...
In Python and Pyqt - I've got a simple class which instantiates a Label class and a GroupBox class. According to docs, passing the Groupbox to the Label upon creation should make the Groupbox the parent of Label. However, I must be missing something simple here. When I create the GroupBox it's fine, when I create the Label however - it...
I'm starting a basic application using Python and PyQt and could use some experienced insight. Here's the structure I was thinking. This is understandably subjective, but is there a better way? myApp/GUI/__init__.py mainWindow.py subWindow1.py subWindow2.py myApp/Logic/__init__.py setOfMethods1...

Hi, I didn't want to install python modules using easy install, symlinks in site-packages or PYTHONPATH. So, I am trying something that I do wants system wide, then any application installation is done locally. Note, the root password is required only once here.

Lets say I have around 1,000,000 users. I want to find out what position any given user is in, and which users are around him. A user can get a new achievement at any time, and if he could see his standing update, that would be wonderful. Honestly, every way I think of doing this would be horrendously expensive in time and/or memory. Id...
In order to redeploy a GAE application, I currently have to install the GAE deployment tools on the system that I am using for deployment. While this process is relatively straight forward, the deployment process is a manual process that does not work from behind a firewall and the deployment tools must be installed on every machine that...
I'm trying to make a web scraper that will parse a web-page of publications and extract the authors. The skeletal structure of the web-page is the following: <html> <body> <div id="container"> <div id="contents"> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td class="author">####I want whatever is located here ###</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> </div> </...

Possible duplicate What is the best open source example of a lightweight Windows Application? µTorrent is a small bit-torrent client, a really small one. It doesn't come with an installer, just a exe, you drop in your PATH somewhere. It's super lightweight and yet feature rich. Plus it is the work of one man. It's also close...

Before i re-invent this particular wheel, has anybody got a nice routine for calculating the size of a directory using Python? It would be very nice if the routine would format the size nicely in Mb/Gb etc. Thanks. ...
Why is "hello" is "hello" == True in Python? I read the following here: "If two string literals are equal, they have been put to same memory location. A string is an immutable entity. No harm can be done." So there is one and only one place in memory for every Python string? Sounds pretty strange. What's going on here? ...
