You can walk thought a set object like any iterable object like
for x in myset:
#do something like parse it.
If you want to slice it, convert it to a list:
mylist = list(myset)
Or read about sets:
http://docs.python.org/library/sets.html
Both the following solutions threw the same error:
newCol = list(colValue[0])
print newCol[0:20]
and
for x in colValue[0]:
print x
/var/www/html/angrynates.com/cart/display.py
<http://angrynates.com/cart/display.py>
98 raise
99 cursor.close()
100 bottom()
101
102 display()
display = <function display>
/var/www/html/angrynates.com/cart/display.py
<http://angrynates.com/cart/display.py> in display()
50 # newCol = list(colValue[0])
51 # print newCol[0:20]
52 for x in colValue[0]:
53 print x
54 print 'XXX'
x undefined, colValue = (datetime.date(2009, 10, 22),)
TypeError: iteration over non-sequence
args = ('iteration over non-sequence',)
That tells me that, in this case, colValue[0] is an instance of
datetime, not Set.
