I also want that method to print the distance measure that was used. The distance measure is given to the function by the caller in the form of a callable object. If the callable is an instance of some cl...
I am amazed by how Expect (TCL) can automate a lot of things I normally could not do. I thought I could dig deeper into Expect by reading a book, but before I do that I want to ask if there are other solutions/languages that could do what Expect does? Eg. I have read that people compare Expect with Awk and also Perl. Could Awk and Per...
I'm writing a Python program with a GUI built with the Tkinter module. I'm using a class to define the GUI because it makes it easier to pass commands to buttons and makes the whole thing a bit easier to understand. The actual initialization of my GUI takes about 150 lines of code. To make this easier to understand, I've written the __i...
Basically what I'm trying to do is fetch a couple of websites using proxies and process the data. The problem is that the requests rarely fail in a convincing way, setting socket timeouts wasnt very helpful either because they often didn't work. So what I did is: q = Queue() s = ['google.com','ebay.com',] # And so on for item in s: ...

I'm using Ubuntu, MySQL, ejabberd, and Python. I can authenticate all the records that are already on the database. But, when I add or re...
I have always wondered about this and seen this among lots of programmers. Why is a VB programmer or VB code easily dismissed as too noobish and easy while the same does not apply to Python or Python code? After all, isn't Python as easy as VB is? And it does provide drag-n-drop GUI application building also. So why is it that VB is flam...

I've been using Django and Django passes in a request object to a view when it's run. It looks like (from first glance) in Flask the application owns the request and it's imported (as if it was a static resource). I don't understand this and I'm just trying to wrap my brain around WSGI and Flask, etc. Any help is appreciated. ...
