Hardly matters what the return value is, given that the code ignores it. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

What is it for? I've learn Python for a while, but I don't use it for more than 2 years now. Thanks. The backslash at the end of the line indicates that that the statement continues onto the next line, so it's the same as: plt.xlabel("$p$, probability of heads") if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1] else None However, that line is weird! In Python there's a "ternary operator". The docs say: """The expression x if C else y first evaluates the condition, C rather than x. If C is true, x is evaluated and its value is returned; otherwise, y is evaluated and its value is returned.""" Suppose you have the expression: "even" if x % 2 == 0 else "odd" If x is a multiple of 2, that expression will evaluate to "even", else it will evaluate to "odd". The line in your code is misusing it as a statement. Normally you would write this instead: if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1]: plt.xlabel("$p$, probability of heads") Why was it written that way? I have no idea, it's just weird... -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

What meaning is "if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1] else None"?
Hi, I am trying to understand the meaning of the below code snippet. Though I have a Python IDLE at computer, I can't get a way to know below line: if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1] else None I feel it is strange for what returns when the 'if' condition is true? The second part 'None' is clear to me though. Could you explain it to me? thanks, %matplotlib inline from IPython.core.pylabtools import figsize import numpy as np from matplotlib import pyplot as plt figsize(11, 9) import scipy.stats as stats dist = stats.beta n_trials = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 15, 50, 500] data = stats.bernoulli.rvs(0.5, size=n_trials[-1]) x = np.linspace(0, 1, 100) # For the already prepared, I'm using Binomial's conj. prior. for k, N in enumerate(n_trials): sx = plt.subplot(len(n_trials) / 2, 2, k + 1) plt.xlabel("$p$, probability of heads") \ if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1] else None plt.setp(sx.get_yticklabels(), visible=False) heads = data[:N].sum() y = dist.pdf(x, 1 + heads, 1 + N - heads) plt.plot(x, y, label="observe %d tosses,\n %d heads" % (N, heads)) plt.fill_between(x, 0, y, color="#348ABD", alpha=0.4) plt.vlines(0.5, 0, 4, color="k", linestyles="--", lw=1) leg = plt.legend() leg.get_frame().set_alpha(0.4) plt.autoscale(tight=True -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

How can I achieve this behavior? Another "issue", I feel like handing my 'session' that I instantiated at user.py to program, then unit, then course and then assignment is a poor design, how can I make it better? > > Any other suggestions are welcome.

I bet I will remember it from now on. I stuck a few code examples into my 'snips' directory. Generator expressions are new to me. I have seen it's use but I didn't understand what it was and what it was doing, until now.
