Can I represent a composite field (a field that gets serialized to multiple columns in db)...
I made my own simple WebSocket server in Python but Chrome 4.0.249.78 dev (36714) ALWAYS disconnects after the handshake. To make sure it wasn't my code I used the WebSocket server found at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2153294?tab=newest#tab-top to test it and got the same result (below). listening... connection!

I was having trouble implementing 'namedtuple._replace()', so I copied the code right off of the documentation: Point = namedtuple('Point', 'x,y') p = Point(x=11, y=22) p._replace(x=33) print p and I got: Point(x=11, y=22) instead of: Point(x=33, y=22) as is shown in the doc.

I'm reading some numbers from a data source that represent xy coordinates that I'll be using for a TSP-esque problem. I'm new to python, so I'm trying to make the most of lists. After reading and parsing through the data, I'm left with a list of string lists that looks like this: [['565.0', '575.0'], ['1215.0', '245.0'], ...youge...
We are currently using Google App Engine to evaluate solutions to Python problems submitted by students. We have moved all of the untrusted code execution off to a separate GAE application that doesn't use the datastore. Everything seems to be working fine for the 50+ problems we have uploaded, but I'm curious what security holes remain ...
The following code is used to execute doctests in a Google App Engine app. How would you do this for tests written as unit test asserts rather than as doctests? #The solution and tests are untrusted code passed in to the GAE app. solution = 'b=5' unittest = 'assertEqual(b, 5)' #Here is the doctest version as a reference. solution = ...

Hey, first time post, I'm really stuck on httplib2. I've been reading up on it from diveintopython3.org, but it mentions nothing about a timeout function. I look up the documentation, but the only thing I see is an ability to put a timeout int but there are no units specified (seconds? milliseconds? What's the default if None?) This is w...
li = [0, 1, 2, 3] running = True while running: for elem in li: thiselem = elem nextelem = li[li.index(elem)+1] When this reaches the last element, an IndexError is raised (as is the case for any list, tuple, dictionary, or string that is iterated). I actually want at that point for nextelem to equal li[0]. My rath...
