I'm a long-time Python programmer and short-time Cocoa programmer. I'm just getting started with PyObjC and it's really amazing how easy it it is to get stuff done. That said, I wanted to try using pure ObjC for my controller with PyObjC models. I might be enjoy letting Python be Python and Objective-C be Objective-C. I figured it was wo...

I often need to automate word perfect (for work) with python, and even if my script has no output, if I execute it from without WP an empty shell still pops up for a second before disappearing.

So I've been building django applications for a while now, and drinking the cool-aid and all: only using the ORM and never writing custom SQL. The main page of the site (the primary interface where users will spend 80% - 90% of their time) was getting slow once you have a large amount of user specific content (ie photos, friends, other ...
Count the longest sequence of heads and tails in 200 coin flips. I did this - is there a niftier way to do it in python? (without being too obfuscated) import random def toss(n): count = [0,0] longest = [0,0] for i in xrange(n): coinface = random.randrange(2) count[coinface] += 1 count[not coinface]...

Here's a snippet of code I'm using in a loop: while True: print 'loop' rlist, wlist, xlist = select.select(readers, [], [], TIMEOUT) print 'selected' # do stuff At a certain point, select will block and "selected" is never getting printed. What can cause this behavior? Is it possible there's some kind of deadlock? U...
I need to limit the amount of time and cpu taken by external command line apps I spawn from a python process using subprocess.call , mainly because sometimes the spawned process gets stuck and pins the cpu at 99%. nice and ulimit seem like reasonable ways to do this, but I'm not sure how they'd interact with subprocess. The limits lo...
I maintain a fork of my project for Python 3.1. When I initially made the port from 2.6, I used 2to3, but now I constantly have to merge new code from the 2.6 fork into the 3.1 fork. How can I perform the 2to3 operation on these merges automatically? (I use git, if it matters.) ...
I'm writing an aggregation application which scrapes data from a couple of web sources and displays that data with a novel interface. The sites from which I'm scraping update every couple of minutes, and I want to make sure the data on my aggregator is up-to-date. What's the best way to periodically submit fresh data to my App Engine ap...
This happens in IDLE and Windows 7 RC1 (if that helps). Here is the module: from math import * from TurtleWorld import * world = TurtleWorld() bob = Turtle() bob.delay = 0.1 def polyline(turtle, length, n, angle): for i in range(n): fd(turtle, length) rt(turtle, angle) def polygon(turtle, length, n): """ p...

I want to keep some statistics about users and locations in a database. For instance, I would like to store "Mozilla","Firefox","Safari","Chrome","IE", etc... as well as the versions, and possibly the operating system.

Hello! I'm attempting to create a client/server web-app. The client software is written in Objective-C (Mac), and the server software is written in Python (Linux).
