However, I can't seem to be able to save this information because None Of the signals I tried yet actually succeeds to call my report_session function.

Mac os x 10.6. Hello I'm trying to install lxml to solve an inkscape message. I've had a look at the website, and version 2.2.8 looked reasonable to me but when I did easy_install lxml it installed version 2.3.beta1 which is not really what I want I presume. What is the best way to fix this and how can I force easy_install with the versi...
I have a class whose methods require that a certain class field exists correctly. That class field is set in the constructor and it's read from a config file, and it may or may not get the correct data from that config file. If the data is incorrect, it will have the wrong data in the class field and the class method will throw an except...

So this is a very weird situation, and I'm sure not very pythonic. But I'm not actually using this in any production code, I'm just considering how (if?) this could work. It doesn't have to be python specific, but I'd like a solution that at least WORKS within python framework. Basically, I have a thread safe singleton object that imple...
This is the first time I am using matplotlib and numpy. Here goes the problem: If I goto python cli, the intended code works fine. Here is that code >>> from numpy import * >>> y = array([1,2]) >>> y = append(y, y[len(y) - 1]+1) >>> y array([1, 2, 3]) But if I use it with matplotlib in a script I get this error. line 26, in onkeypr...
I'm seeking simple Python function that takes a string and returns a similar one but with all non-ascii characters converted to their closest ascii equivalent. For example, diacritics and whatnot should be dropped. I'm imagining there must be a pretty canonical way to do this and there are plenty of related stackoverflow questions but I'...
I'm trying to compile a simple Python program, that uploads files to an S3 bucket using the boto package, in to a single, redistributable .exe file. I'm open to any compilation method. So far I've tried both bbfreeze and py2exe and both yield the same results. The code in question that causes trouble looks like this: import boto #...sni...

I am new to python and I was writing something like: t = 0. while t<4.9: t = t + 0.1 if t == 1.: ... do something ... I noticed that the if statement was never being executed. So I modified the code to look like this: ''' Case a''' t = 0. while t<4.9: t = t + 0.1 print(t) print(t == 5.) When I run t...
