Specifically I have code that simplifies to this: from datetime import datetime date_string = '2009-11-29 03:17 PM' format = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M %p' my_date = datetime.strptime(date_string, format) # This prints '2009-11-29 03:17 AM' print my_date.strftime(format) What gives? Does Python just ignore the period specifier when parsing date...
I am developing a small web application using cherrypy and I would like to generate some graphs from the data stored in a database. The web pages with tables are easy and I plan to use matplotlib for the graphs themselves, but how do I set the content-type for the method so they return images instead of plain text? Will cherrypy "snif...
When you run something through popen in Python, the results come in from the buffer with the CR-LF decimal value of a carriage return (13) at the end of each line. How do you remove this from a Python string? ...

I'm trying to find a way to limit the memory available for the Python VM, as the option "-Xmx" in the Java VM does. (The idea is to be able to play with the MemoryError exception) I'm not sure this option exist but there may be a solution using a command of the OS to "isolate" a process and its memory. Thank you. ...
My program has a gtk.TreeView which displays a gtk.ListStore. The gtk.ListStore contains strings like this: "<span size='medium'><b>"+site_title+"</b></span>"+"\n"+URL Where URL is (obviously) a URL string. Sometimes there are characters in URL that cause pango to fail to parse the markup. Is there a way to escape URL as a whole so...

I really don't like the Picasa feed-oriented API. Why couldn't they create rest interface? Does anyone know how I can get the URL for a particular album? For example say i got: gd_client = gdata.photos.service.PhotosService() albums = gd_client.GetUserFeed(user="[email protected]") album = albums.entry[0] What is it's url? I am looking ...
I'm making a game link site, where users can post links to their favorite web game. When people post games they are supposed to check what category the game falls into. I decided to allow many categories for each game since some games can fall into many categories. So the question is, how do I handle this in my view? And how can I...
A Python function object has an attribute dictionary called func_dict which is visible from outside the function and is mutable, but which is not modified when the function is called. (I learned this from answers to a question I asked yesterday (#1753232): thanks!) I was reading code (at http://pythonprogramming.jottit.com/functional%...
What's the correct way to do an ajax request, I've seen people using a returning render_to_string so that they can do all their formatting within python using the template language. eg~ return render_to_string('calendar.html', { 'self' : self, 'month' : self.today.month,}) with this as the javascript: $('#django_calendar_response').h...

Python can only import files from the current working directory, or from its path, I guess, but this means that if I'm working in a subdirectory on a certain project, I can't import stuff from a parent directory that I wrote to simplify things or provide shortcuts. This is more for interactive work in IPython and the like, not developin...

I'm working on a Django project. Let's call it myproject. Now my code is littered with myproject.folder.file.function. Is there anyway I can remove the need to prefix all my imports and such with myproject.? What if I want to rename my project later? It kind of annoys me that I need to prefix stuff like that when the very file I'm import...

My problem is I want to keep rotating the scene if the checkbox is checked, and stop this rotation immediately once it is unchecked. However, "keep rotating" means an infinite loop... So after entering the loop, the program gets kind of freezed and no longer react to my "uncheck" signal. Is there a way to interrupt this loop? The follow...
