I've written an implementation of Bresenham's algorithm in Python (following the Wikipedia article), and it works correctly except for lines at certain angles. All lines that should extend between 45 and 90 degrees, or between 135 and 270 degrees, will instead extend along the line y = x. Here's my code: def bresenham(origin, dest):...

Like example: Item Quality Cost Place Ball 1 $12 TX Umbrella 5 $35 NY sweater 89 ...
The documentation for Python 2.7 lists string.find as a deprecated function but does not (unlike atoi and atol) provide an alternative. I'm coding in 2.7 at the moment so I'm happy to use it but I would like to know: what is it going to be replaced with? is that usable in 2.7 (if so, I'll use it now so as to avoid recoding later)? ...
This is a follow on from my question here, I think I will have to look at a different method. I'm wanting to package my python program with some of it's dependencies. I'm aware of tools like cx freeze or bb freeze, but as you can see in the linked question they have issues for my situation. I don't want my users to have to install my ...

Hi, I'm using the Python library Minimatic found at this site: Minimatic What this essentially does is it minifies and combines all your css and js files into one file.

I have a Python/wxPython program where the GUI is the main thread and I use another thread to load data from a file. Sometimes the files are big and slow to load so I use a wxPulse dialog to indicate progress. As I load the file, I count the number of lines that have been read in the counting thread, and I display this count in the wxP...
I first tried to use django and then django-webhooks to call a shell script that restarts the server. This didn't work, because the webpage hangs when the server restart is called, as django is reloaded. Then I used fastcgi and python alone to create a URL that calls the shell script. I know the python script works when I run it on the...

I have a 2 list of dictionaries. The first list contains sphere definitions in terms of x, y, z, radius. The second list contains various points in space as x, y, z. These lists are both very long, so iterating over each list and compare against all values is inefficient. I've been trying the map and reduce terms, but both of them take...

I'd like to be able to assign these labels to the ticks on the slider. Is there a way of doing this without having to subclass or position separate static text contro...
Hey all, So I'm trying to authenticate users on a Pylons web application using openid. I don't want to use authkit, seeing as it is no longer maintained.

I want to encode an image into a string using the base64 module. I've ran into a problem though. How do I specify the image I want to be encoded? I tried using the directory to the image, but that simply leads to the directory being encoded. I want the actual image file to be encoded. EDIT I tired this snippet: with open("C:\Python...
