Ex. If I have something like this: class C(object): @classmethod def f(cls, x): return x + x This will work: c = C() c.f(2) 4 But is that bad form? Should I only call C.f() or c.__class__.f() Obviously, this would only make sense in cases where f doesn't interact with self/cls expecting it to be class. ? ...

I was able to configure NetBeans for 2.6.1 by going to to the Python Platform Manager, creating a new platform, and pointing NetBeans at python.exe where I installed 2.6.1. However, when I follow the exact same steps for 3.0, I get an error in the NetBeans console that says "SyntaxError: invalid syntax". If it matters, Python is install...
Let's say I have a list like: my_list = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]] How do I alter every value in the list without doing?: for x in range(0, 3): for y in range(0, 3): my_list[x][y] = -my_list[x][y] I have tried to simplify this by doing my_list = [[[-a, -b, -c] for [a, b, c] in d] for d in my_list] but the values remai...

Currently when it runs, by the time it finishes python has climbed to using over 1GB of memory which isn't acceptable for running in a shared environme...
