I am displaying a jpg image (I rotate this by 90 degrees, if this is relevant) and of course the axes display the pixel coordinates. I would like to convert the axis so that instead of displaying the pixel number, it will display my unit of choice - be it radians, degrees, or in my case an astronomical coordinate. I know the conversion f...
Hi Say I have: t = ( ('dog', 'Dog'), ('cat', 'Cat'), ('fish', 'Fish'), ) And I need to check if a value is in the first bit of the nested tuple (ie. the lowercase bits). How can I do this? The capitalised values do not matter really, I want to search for a string in only the lowercase values. if 'fish' in t: print "F...
I am fetching a .js file from a remote site that contains data I want to process as JSON using the simplejson library on my Google App Engine site. The .js file looks like this: var txns = [ { apples: '100', oranges: '20', type: 'SELL'}, { apples: '200', oranges: '10', type: 'BUY'}] I have no control over the format of this ...
I wrote a class that lets me pass in a list of variable types, variable names, prompts, and default values. The class creates a wxPython panel, which is displayed in a frame that lets the user set the input values before pressing the calculate button and getting the results back as a plot. I add all of the variables to the class using ...
I'm building a per-user file browsing/uploading application using Django and when I run this function def walkdeep(request, path): path, dirs, files = walktoo('/home/damon/walktemp/%s' % path) return render_to_response('walk.html', { 'path' : path[0], 'dirs' : path[1], 'files' : path[2], }, context_i...
I am attempting to parse an XML file using python expat. I have the following line in my XML file: <Action><fail/></Action> expat identifies the start and end tags but converts the & lt; to the less than character and the same for the greater than character and thus parses it like this: outcome: START 'Action' DATA '<' DATA 'f...
Hello, I have a large xml file (40 Gb) that I need to split into smaller chunks. I am working with limited space, so is there a way to delete lines from the original file as I write them to new files? Thanks! ...
Is there a way in Django to accept 'n' parameters which are delimited by a '/' (forward slash)? I was thinking this may work, but it does not. Django still recognizes forward slashes as delimiters. (r'^(?P<path>[-\w]+/)$', 'some.view', {}), ...
Does anybody have directions for getting Eclipse (Galileo), PyDev, and Virtualenv working together? I'm specifically trying to run Pinax but any instructions are fine. I thought I had it (and even blogged everything but the final step - interactive debugging) and still there is no solution. I'm specifically on OS X but any answer shou...
I'm a newbie on the Django scene coming from an ASP.NET C# background. I'm looking for some good resources to help me learn the ins and outs of Django/Python. Any recommendations? ...
What is the difference between "inspect" and "interactive" flags? The sys.flags function prints both of them. How can they both have "-i" flag according to the documentation of sys.flags? How can I set them separately? If I use "python -i", both of them will be set to 1. Related: tell whether python is in -i mode ...
How exactly do I configure my setup.py file so that when someone runs easy_install the package gets expanded into \site-packages\ as a directory, rather than remaining inside an egg. The issue I'm encountering is that one of the django apps I've created won't auto-detect if it resides inside an egg. EDIT: For example, if I type easy_in...
I have a program that listens on a port waiting for a small amount of data to tell it what to do. I run 5 instances of that program, one on each port from 5000 to 5004 inclusively. I have a second program written in Python that creates a socket "s", writes the data to port 5000, then closes. It then increments the port number and create...
I will confess I'm very new to Python and I don't really know what I'm doing yet. Recently I created a very small Windows application using Python 2.6.2 and wxPython 2.8. And it works great; I'm quite pleased with how well it works normally. By normally I mean when I invoke it directly through the Python interpreter, like this: > python...
I'm trying to cross compile an in house language(ihl) to Python. One of the ihl features is pointers and references that behave like you would expect from C or C++. For instance you can do this: a = [1,2]; // a has an array b = &a; // b points to a *b = 2; // derefernce b to store 2 in a print(a); // outputs 2 print(*b); ...
When using mpirun, is it possible to catch signals (for example, the SIGINT generated by ^C) in the code being run? For example, I'm running a parallelized python code. I can except KeyboardInterrupt to catch those errors when running python blah.py by itself, but I can't when doing mpirun -np 1 python blah.py. Does anyone have a sugge...
In ajax.py, I have this import statement: import components.db_init as db In components/db_init.py, I have this import statement: # import locals from ORM (Storm) from storm.locals import * And in components/storm/locals.py, it has this: from storm.properties import Bool, Int, Float, RawStr, Chars, Unicode, Pickle from storm.prope...
I am currently playing around with SQLAlchemy a bit, which is really quite neat. For testing I created a huge table containing my pictures archive, indexed by SHA1 hashes (to remove duplicates :-)). Which was impressingly fast... For fun I did the equivalent of a select * over the resulting SQLite database: session = Session() for p i...
