I have python code in a class method translated from C++ that looks sort of like this:
>>> self.dydt[1] = self.a * (self.b * self.y[0] - self.y[1]) To make this more readable in C++ I had made macros to achieve this: #define du (dydt[1]) #define u (y[1]) #define V (y[0]) du = a * (b * V - u); I realize the value of not having macros in Python. They've tripped me up more than once in C++. My question is: Is there any way to write a shorterhand more readable version of the python code above? I'm doing several calculations one after the other and some of the lines are quite long. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
