On a Red hat box, I upgraded Python from 2.3 to 2.6.4 and changed the symlink to python so when I type in python the 2.6.4 interpreter comes up. However my .py file works from the command-line, but not in the browser. It seemed like a sys.path issue so I opened the file in a browser and printed out sys.path. Surprisingly, my sys.path i...

I wanted to pickle the matrix from the python code, and unpickle it from c code, but I could not find documentation or example on how to do this.

So far I've been including a .commmand file which is double-clickable, which basically consists of cd `dirname $0` (sleep 8;open http://127.0.0.1:8080/)& mac/slingshotsms.app/Contents...

I thought it would be a good idea to compile a list of things to watch out for when making a Python app portable. There are a lot of subtle 'gotchas' in portability that are only discovered through experience and thorough testing; there needs to be some sort of list addressing the more common ones. Please post one gotcha (with its fix) ...

I'm used to C++, and I build my data handling classes/functions to handle stream objects instead of files. I'd like to know how I might modify the following code, so that it can handle a stream of binary data in memory, rather than a file handle. def get_count(self): curr = self.file.tell() self.file.seek(0, 0) count, = stru...
I have been programming in Python for a while now, and I'd like to learn a more "hireable" language like Java or the C/C++/C# family. I'm acquainted with (though not necessarily good at) all of them. I'm leaning towards Java because it runs just about everywhere, and I'd like to start developing for the Android. Coming from a dynamic l...
