I'm a bit confused about extracting data using re.search or re.findall.
Say I have the following code: tuples =
re.findall(r'blahblah(\d+)yattayattayatta(\w+)moreblahblahblah(\w+)over',
text)
So I'm looking for that string in 'text', and I intend to extract the parts
which have parentheses around
Thanks Walter; I believe I understand the reasoning behind it, though not
all of the mechanics, but for now, your answer is more than sufficient.

seen this so far,
there is no variable called "_name_", and even if there was, why is it
comparing it to "_main_"? Why can't the main function just be called by
typing main()- why do we need this if statement to precede it? Thanks.

Hey all; my question is regarding editing Python code in Notepad++. When I
run this piece of code in Notepad++:
def fix_start(s):
var1 = s[0]
var2 = "*"
var3 = s.replace(var1, var2)
return var3
I get an indentation error, which reads:
File "C:\google-python-exercises\google-python
My bad- meant to say [1]. Thanks.

Sorry if this is a bit confusing. Thanks for your help and tips so far Bob.

Hi guys- I'm having a problem with a list that has nested tuples:
attributes = [("strength", 0), ("health ", 0), ("wisdom ", 0),
("dexterity", 0)]
I've defined the list above with 4 items, each starting with a value of 0.
The player
enters how many points he or she wants to add to a given item.
le's class works out with Python 3.1, and if not, I'll switch
over to a different one.

I downloaded the google's python exercise files from their website (
http://code.google.com/edu/languages/google-python-class/set-up.html),
unzipped them, and placed them in C.
I then added the following to the PATH variable under system settings so
that I could type "python" in command prompt and

Does anyone know how to assign a certain numerical range to a variable, and
then choose the number that is the middle of that range? For example, I want
to assign the variable "X" a range between 1 and 50, and then I want to have
the middle of that range (25) return with some command when I call it
Hello- I am running Python v 3.1.1. As an exercise, I wrote a simple coin
flipper program, where the computer flips a coin 100 times and then prints
out the number of heads and tails. My program crashes immediately if I run
it normally through the command line, but if I go to "Run- Run Module," it
