Ten rules to becoming a Python community member.
Follow these simply rules to become an accepted member of the Python community. 1. Bash rantingrick and Xah Lee every chance you get. 2. Bash people who bash rick or xah because their basing made rick's or xah's words pass through your spam filter. 3. Post links to xkcd as often as you can. Don't worry if they have been posted a thousand times, just post them because it equals "geek cool points". 4. When the chance presents itself, make snide comments about lisp and perl; but NEVER about Ruby! (even though Ruby is Perl's micro minion!). 5. Use fancy words like "tail recursion", just because you read about it on Guido's blog once (even if you have no idea what that means)! 6. Engage in heated and pointless discussions as to whether Python is "pass-by-reference" or "pass-by-value" even if you have no idea what the hell you are talking about. 7. Play devils advocate often e.g., If someone hates Tkinter: then argue how great Tkinter is regardless of how much you actually care, use, or know about the module. Likewise if someone likes Tkinter: then argue how terrible Tkinter is and how Python does not need any GUI library; again, regardless of how much you actually care, use, or know about the module. 8. Use "e.g." as many times as you can! (e.g. e.g.) If you use "e.g." more than ten times in a single post, you will get an invite to Guido's next birthday party; where you'll be forced to do shots whist walking the balcony railing wearing wooden shoes! 9. Never use the word "previously" or the phrase "in the past"; just dumb it down with "used to". 10. Finally, if you get caught using the word "that" incredibly excessively, just hope that nobody notices that that that you are really GvR in disguise. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

It "almost" seems as if you have a valid point here until you consider that conditionals and blocks are ridged structures that must be defined under a strict set of syntactical rules with keywords and indentation.

Data issues with Django and Apache
I'm devleoping a website using the Django framework along with Apache, and I'm seeing some odd data issues. During the course of navigating through the website content, a user will cause the creation of some data records with a limited lifespan. These data records have a create_dt field which is automatically set to the time that they were created, and an expire_dt field which is equal to create_dt plus ten minutes. The problem is that I get conflicting results as to whether these temporary records have reached their expiration date, depending if I search for them via an Apache web call or if I do the search locally from a python shell. And to make it weirder, the conflicts go away if I stop and restart the Apache server, although any new records created after this point will still exhibit the issue. Are there any known "gotchas" when using Django with Apache? It almost seems like Apache is maintaining its own persistent session or something, and restarting Apache causes the session to be flushed. -- John Gordon A is for Amy, who fell down the stairs gor...@panix.com B is for Basil, assaulted by bears -- Edward Gorey, "The Gashlycrumb Tinies" -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

After a bit more googling I discovered the answer here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1959188/absolute-import-failing-in- subpackage-that-shadows-a-stdlib-package-name The deal is that sys.path by default has the empty string as the first element, which tells Python to look first in the directory of the script being executed.

Relative import from script with same name as package
I'm using Python 2.6.5. I have a directory structure like this: thetest/ __init__.py thetest.py theother.py __init__.py is an empty file. theother.py contains a function foo(). The package is accessible from sys.path, so that if I open the interpreter and do "import thetest" or "from thetest import thetest" or "import thetest.thetest", it works fine. Inside thetest.py I have code like this: ### from __future__ import absolute_import if __name__ == "__main__" and __package__ is None: import thetest __package__ = "thetest" from .theother import foo ### Note that I need the "import thetest" line to avoid a "parent module not loaded" error, as described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2943847/nightmare-with-relative- imports-how-does-pep-366-work If I run foo.py directly, I receive a traceback like this: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\...\thetest\thetest.py", line 4, in import thetest File "C:\...\thetest\thetest.py", line 11, in from .theother import foo ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package It appears that Python is reading "import thetest" as importing thetest.py (the same file that is currently being run). When it tries to run that file a second time, the relative import fails. But why? That __future__ import is supposed to make absolute imports the default, so why is "import thetest" importing thetest.py instead of the package called thetest? The absolute import should make it look in sys.path first and not try to import from the script directory, right? If I change the outer directory name and change the code in thetest.py to match, it works fine. But I shouldn't have to do this.

This seems to be a very good solution but I would replace basic types
with wrappers
short[] quant (float[], Integer, Float)
short quant (Float , Integer, Float)
When you implement those two methods (where you need to check if
Integer, Float are not null) then you can define two more methods:
short[] quant (float[]) {
return quant (float[], null, null);
}
short quant (float) {
return quant (float, null, null);
}
That gives you 2 methods for unit testing.

They don't use one main thread; it's just that each process's main thread has the same name. Which makes sense: when you fork a process all the data in the process has to remain valid in both parent and child, so any pointers would have to have the same value (and the -1216477504 happens to be the value of that pointer cast to an int).

I'm using python for long now, and just discovered these HowTo today :- ( I don't thing rewriting these articles into another format will improve the "message". I will not rewrite them. You are free to do it, just keep my name as the original author. I have no other original source than the HTML one you can have on my blog. I appreciate your interest for my work. I think to put all the sources together to create a library. I thing about the name of pyezmail for "python easy mail". Any comment ?

You should not mix thread and fork. Some hint : You put your "import threading" before your fork(), then data initialized by the import are the same in the two process then it display the same, this is like a=-1216477504 os.fork() print a second I thing -1216477504 has no meaning, this is not a system thread ID but just an ID generated by python I think they must be unique inside a process but not cross process. Then 2 process can have the same python thread ID. If you have to mix thread and fork try to find some hints from Internet. Something like don't fork a process that already has tread(), or try to keep all your threads inside the same process ... Regards -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
thread and process
please see my code: import os import threading print threading.currentThread() print "i am parent ",os.getpid() ret = os.fork() print "i am here",os.getpid() print threading.currentThread() if ret == 0: print threading.currentThread() else: os.wait() print threading.currentThread() print "i am runing,who am i? ",os.getpid(),threading.currentThread() the output is: <_MainThread(MainThread, started -1216477504)> i am parent 13495 i am here 13495 <_MainThread(MainThread, started -1216477504)> i am here 13496 <_MainThread(MainThread, started -1216477504)> <_MainThread(MainThread, started -1216477504)> i am runing,who am i? 13496 <_MainThread(MainThread, started -1216477504)> <_MainThread(MainThread, started -1216477504)> i am runing,who am i? 13495 <_MainThread(MainThread, started -1216477504)> it is so strange that two different processes use one mainthread!!-- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
