I've seen a bunch of solutions on the site to remove duplicates while preserving the oldest element. I'm interested in the opposite: removing duplicates while preserving the newest element, for example: list = ['1234','2345','3456','1234'] list.append('1234') >>> ['1234','2345','3456','1234','1234'] list = unique(list) >>> ['2345','345...

The aim of the function is to provide a boolean response stating whether the s...

I am using the Python module telnetlib to create a telnet session (with a chess server), and I'm having an issue I really can't wrap my brain around. The following code works perfectly: >>> f = login("my_server") #code for login(host) below. >>> f.read_very_eager() This spits out everything the server usually prints upon login. Howeve...

Is something like this bad with memcache? 1. GET LIST OF KEYS 2. FOR EACH KEY IN LIST OF KEYS - GET DATA I'm expecting the list of keys to be around ~1000 long.

I'd like to sum one particular row of a large NumPy array. I know the function array.max() will give the maximum across the whole array, and array.max(1) will give me the maximum across each of the rows as an array. However, I'd like to get the maximum in a certain row (for example, row 7, or row 29). I have a large array, so getting the...
