I suspect the root of the problem here is that you don't understand what
this is actually doing. You should run this code in the command-line
interpreter, one line at a time, and print the results.
The read instruction produces a string with 100k bytes. The b2a_hex
then
produces a string with 200k bytes. Then, int(hexstr,16) takes that
200,000 byte hex string and converts it to an integer, roughly equal to 10
to the
240,000 power, a number with some 240,000 decimal digits. You then
convert
that integer to a binary string. That string will contain 800,000 bytes.
You then drop the first two characters and print the other 799,998 bytes,
each of which will be either '0' or '1'.
I am absolutely, positively convinced that's not what you wanted to do.
What point is there in printing out the binary equavalent of a bitmap?
Even if you did, it would be much quicker for you to do the conversion one
byte at a time, completely skipping the conversion to hex and then the
creation of a massive multi-precision number. Example:
Hm, if you fix the long integer arithmetic problem you should also attack
the unbounded memory consumption problem in general ;)
f = open('example.bmp','rb')
rawdata = f.read()
bsstr = []
for b in rawdata:
bsstr.append( bin(ord(b)) )
bsstr = ''.join(bsstr)
or even:
f = open('example.bmp','rb')
bsstr = ''.join( bin(ord(b))[2:] for b in f.read() )
Yes, the original is horrible newbie code ;) but that's what you tend to
write while learning to program -- and python can handle it alright. On the
other hand, Idle becomes unresponsive when I do
print(a*10**6)
in its shell. I'm still investigating, but the problem seems to be that it's
a single line.
print((a*100+\n) * 10**4)
takes under 7 secs. Not as good as konsole (KDE's terminal emulation) which
finishes in 0.5 secs, but acceptable.

Exactly my idea at first. But then I started to time it (using
the timeit module) by comparing the following functions:

def c1( rawdata ) :
h = binascii.b2a_hex( rawdata )
z = bin( int( h, 16 ) )[ 2 : ]
return '0' * ( 8 * len( r ) - len( z ) ) + z

return ''.join( bin( ord( x ) )[ 2 : ].rjust( 8, '0' ) for x in r )
# Convert each byte using a list for table look-up
def c3( rawdata ) :
h = [ bin( i )[ 2 : ].rjust( 8, '0' ) for i in range( 256 ) ]
return ''.join( h[ ord( x ) ] for x in rawdata )
# Convert each byte using a dictionary for table look-up (avoids
# lots of ord() calls)
def c4( rawdata ) :
h = { chr( i ) : bin( i )[ 2 : ].rjust( 8, '0' ) for i in range( 256 ) }
return ''.join( h[ x ] for x in rawdata )
As you can see I even in c3() and c4() tried to speed things up
further by using a table look-up instead if calling bin() etc.
on each byte. But the results was that c2() is nearly 15 times
slower than c1(), c3() about 3 times and c4() still more than 2
times slower! So the method the OP uses seems to be quite a bit
more efficient than one might be tempted to assume.
I would guess that the reason is that c1() does just a small
number of calls of functions that probably aren't implemented
in Python but in C and thus can be a lot faster then anything
you could achieve with Python, while the other functions use a
for loop in Python, which seems to account for a good part of
the CPU time used. To test for that I split the 'rawdata' string
into a list of character (i.e. single letter strings) and re-
assembled it using join() and a for loop:
r = list( rawdata( )
z = ''.join( x for x in r )
The second line alone took about 1.7 times longer than the
whole, seemingly convoluted c1() function!
What I take away from this is that a lot of the assumption one
is prone to make when coming from e.g. a C/C++ background can
be quite misleading when extrapolating to Python (or other in-
terpreted languages)...

Adding new source types to distutils?
Last night I wrote a toy prototype module that lets one compile Rust crates into extension modules for Python. The problem is, I don't know the right way to do this. Ideally I'd just want to tell build_ext that there's a new source type I want to handle (.rc and .rs), and also tell distutils that it should handle it by running the code that I specify (which can compile the .rs/.rc files, remove them from the sources list, and add the resulting object files and such to the linker arguments) The problem is that, as I understand it, the way to do this is subclassing and then replacing the build_ext command. At least, that's what Cython does. The problem is, that's what Cython does, so if I do that, it means you can't use Cython and Rust together -- that's bad, because Cython would be useful for writing bindings to Rust crates, too. So I don't want to write my own subclass. In place of that, I don't know what the right approach is. One possibility is that I subclass Cython's build_ext if it exists, otherwise distutils'. This seems like it's a terrible thing to do, since it locks out any Cython alternative that I may not be aware of, and any other kind of extension to build_ext. I don't know what else I can do. (What I ended up doing, just so that I could actually write the code, was write a new Extension type that compiles the rust code when the extra_link_args attribute is accessed. This is, of course, absolutely terrible, and only barely does the job. It's not as bad as what I had to do to get the linker arguments from rustc, though...) -- Devin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

That approach is discouraged for Cython. The compiler comes with a
cythonize() function these days, which users can simply call from their
setup.py scripts. It spits out a list of Extensions that you can pass into
setup(). So, for example, you can say
extensions = cythonize('mypackage/*.pyx')
and it would do the right thing. You can also pass configuration options
into cythonize() to influence the way Cython translates your code.
Alternatively, you can pass in a list of Extensions and cythonize() will
process that and replace .pyx files by the compiled .c files. That also
makes it easier to build without having Cython installed, by simply
replacing the .pyx files by .c yourself and passing the Extensions directly
into setup(). And it allows for more complex Extension configurations that
Cython doesn't have to care about.
You might want to do something similar in your case. It gives users much
more flexibility when using source code preprocessors and also avoids
conflicts between packages like the one you describe above, or problems
with future versions of distutils due to fragile build setups.

Isn't it weird to compile Cython source files if setup.py is executed

Re: epiphany
Roy Smith於 2013年4月25日星期四UTC+8上午7時50分33秒寫道： I discovered something really neat today. We've got a system with a bunch of rules. Each rule is a method which returns True or False. At some point, we need to know if all the rules are True. Complicating things, not all the rules are implemented. Those that are not implemented raise NotImplementedError. We used to have some ugly logic which kept track of which rules were active and only evaluated those. So, here's the neat thing. It turns out that bool(NotImplemented) returns True. By changing the unimplemented rules from raising NotImplementedError to returning NotImplemented, the whole thing becomes: return all(r() for r in rules) Problems of rules in Boolean algebra or the bi-level logic inference engine in AI were all solved long time ago in the text book about AI. There are some variations about the multi-level or the continuous level logic engine with some new phases in Fuzzy theory in the expert system. A dynamical typed language is better to be used in this kind of problems. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I don't think I bypassed anything, Yes, you skipped the essential if clause. The child process is started with a different __name__. So if the __name__ is not __main__, then you should NOT call any of the GUI startup code. Probably you should do little or nothing in the top-level code of the child process. But we can't give specific advice without seeing what that code now looks like. What code do you have at top level, and if it calls functions, what do they look like? The way you get that code to be different in the child is with that if statement that you omitted. at least not on purpose.

It isn't, but it doesn't matter because all executables I've tried cause the
error, even ping.exe. Just try:
os.execl('ping.exe', '')
And it will cause the python.exe has stopped working error message.

[issue17852] Built-in module _io can loose data from buffered files at exit
Charles-François Natali added the comment: It used to be a consistently reliable behavior in Python 2 (and we made it so in PyPy too), provided of course that the process exits normally; but it no longer is in Python 3. Well I can see the reasons for not flushing files, if it's clearly documented somewhere as a change of behavior from Python 2. When you say Python 2, I assume you mean CPython 2, right? Because - AFAICT - files got flushed only by accident, not by design. For example, I suspect that Jython doesn't flush files on exit (since the JVM doesn't), and I guess IronPython neither. However I'm complaining about the current behavior: files are flushed *most of the time*. That's the problem with implementation-defined behavior ;-) -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue17852 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue17859] improve error message for saving ints to file
New submission from anatoly techtonik:
I needed to write some bytes to file and got this message.
hex = open('hex', 'wb')
for x in range(0, 0xff, 0x11):
... hex.write(x)
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File stdin, line 2, in module
TypeError: 'int' does not support the buffer interface
The cause of the error is not that 'int' doesn't support some interface (which
is strange already, because the function analyzes and writes int, not the int
writes itself), but because it is impossible to know how many binary bytes the
int type should take when written.
In Python 2 the solution is:
...
hex.write(chr(x))
But in Python 3 this is again:
TypeError: 'str' does not support the buffer interface
In Python 3 the solution is:
...
hex.write(x.to_bytes(1, 'little'))

the time should be a constant for a fixed-length iterable regardless of a size
of chunk, but in fact the time is proportional to the size of chunk

4. partially filled-in tuple - not sure what that means

[issue17863] Bad sys.stdin assignment hands interpreter.
New submission from Terry J. Reedy: This appears to be Python 3 specific. On 2.7.4 (Win7): import sys sys.stdin='abd' With fresh 3.4 repository debug build, prompt never appears, ^C, ^D are ignored. Must close with window's [X] button. With fresh 3.3, get repeated [62312 refs] lines. One could guess that they are generated but suppressed in 3.4. There is a possibility that this is specific to debug builds; I cannot currently build or run one for 2.7. However, there is no problem with Idle running (on Windows) with 3.3/3.4 pythonw-d.

[issue17838] Can't assign a different value for sys.stdin in IDLE
Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Roger: yes. This solves immediate problem and makes Idle more like console interpreter. Same should be done for all three. Serhiy: the sole and documented purpose of sys.__stdxyz__ is to serve as backup bindings for the three i/o streams, so rebinding them is senseless. I would be willing to say 'you get what you deserve if you do that'. But since console tolerates double rebinding, we can make Idle do so too. Again, same should be done for all three streams. See attached patch. It seems to work, but someone please recheck for typos. Are we sure that binding streams to handler object cannot cause problems, such as during shutdown with atexit handlers? -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file30050/Terry17838.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue17838 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue17864] IDLE won't run
Ned Deily added the comment: That's really odd. It looks you have a permissions problem with your home directory. On startup, IDLE attempts to create the directory .idlerc in your home directory, /Users/ben, if it doesn't exist already. If for some reason the directory creation fails, IDLE aborts. Interestingly, if the directory exists but IDLE lacks write permission to create files in it, it does not abort but posts a warning message in a window. Perhaps it could be a little more consistent about that. But still, this appears to be avery unusual situation. I can't think of any reason why IDLE would be unable to create a directory unless you have some security system installed or some unusual access control list setting. The most likely reason is just a plain old permission problem on your home directory. Try this in a terminal session: cd ~ ls -lde ~ You should see something similar to this: drwxr-xr-x+ 38 nad staff 2992 Apr 28 15:26 /Users/nad/ 0: group:everyone deny delete if the permissions string is missing the w (dr-xr-x), that means you do not have write permission to your home directory and can't create new directories there. In that case, mkdir ~/.idlerc should fail. (This is essentially what IDLE is trying to do.) If you are missing write permission on your home directory, you *should* be able to fix it by doing: chmod u+w ~ -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue17864 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
