Re: Probably simple syntax error
**weights_array(randomizing_counter) = small_randomized_int The starred line is the one getting the error message: SyntaxError: can't assign to function call Now, I do understand what this means. I'm trying to assign to a function instead of the value that the function should create. But since when is weights_array or small_randomizing_int a function? Both are being declared in the code on their first usage. This one has got me stumped, maybe you guys can help me out with it? Using parens () indicates a function call. I suspect things will work much better using square brackets []. Square brackets indicate the index into a sequence (like a list) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Error message if there is a space in the source directory
When using a source like this on line 5: source = [r'C:\test\test 2\\'] which has a space in the title, the program will not work. Try wrapping that argument in double quotes when you build the command -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: regex question
is there any way i would be successful then, in using raw string inside my makeRE() function? Why do you think you even need a raw string? Just build and return the string 'a|b|c' (NOTE: DON'T add the quotes to the string) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: regex question
yes, i suppose you are right. i can't think of a reason i would NEED a raw string in this situation. It looks from your code that you are trying to remove all occurances of one string from the other. a simple regex way would be to use re.sub() import re a = abc b = debcabbde re.sub([ + a + ],,b) 'dede' -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

The first thing that jumps out at me is your while condition. You are testing Townshps when it seems from the code that you should be testing Townshp. However, the typical Python way to iterate through a list for be to use a for loop. Perhaps replace the while statement with: for Townshp in Townshps: and remove the Townshp = Townshps.next() lines If that doesn't do it, please post the entire traceback message that you are seeing (copy and paste it) and it should tell us a lot more about your error. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: 6 Pick Bet Grouping
The totalizator system allows us to merge or group these four bets as follows: 5 + 7 / 3 / 11 / 7 + 14 / 1 / 9 - $50 ($200 total) I'm still trying to get my head around what you're trying to do, but here's some code: ---snip- data = [5 / 3 / 11 / 7 / 1 / 9 - $50, 7 / 3 / 11 / 7 / 1 / 9 - $50, 5 / 3 / 11 / 14 / 1 / 9 - $50, 7 / 3 / 11 / 14 / 1 / 9 - $50] pick6 = [{},{},{},{},{},{}] for line in data: amount = int(line.split(-)[1].strip().lstrip($)) runners = [int(s) for s in line.split(-)[0].split(/)] for x,r in enumerate(runners): qty,amt = pick6[x].get(r,(0,0)) qty += 1 amt += amount pick6[x][r] = (qty,amt) for place in range(6): print For position ,place for runner in sorted(pick6[place].keys()): bets = pick6[place][runner][0] betamt = pick6[place][runner][1] print Runner,runner,has,bets,bets for $,betamt ---snip- Output: For position 0 Runner 5 has 2 bets for $ 100 Runner 7 has 2 bets for $ 100 For position 1 Runner 3 has 4 bets for $ 200 For position 2 Runner 11 has 4 bets for $ 200 For position 3 Runner 7 has 2 bets for $ 100 Runner 14 has 2 bets for $ 100 For position 4 Runner 1 has 4 bets for $ 200 For position 5 Runner 9 has 4 bets for $ 200 Is that anywhere close? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Unicode/ascii encoding nightmare
The string below is the encoding of the norwegian word fødselsdag. s = 'f\xc3\x83\xc2\xb8dselsdag' I'm not sure which encoding method you used to get the string above.

Re: python html rendering
Hi, Im looking for a way to display some python code in html: with correct indentation, possibly syntax hiliting, dealing correctly with multi-line comment, and... generating valid html code if the python code itself deals with html (hence manipulates tag litterals.

Re: Spliting a string on non alpha characters
I'm relatively new to python but I already noticed that many lines of python code can be simplified to a oneliner by some clever coder. As the topics says, I'm trying to split lines like this : 'foo bar- blah/hm.lala' - [foo, bar, blah, hm, lala] 'foobbbar.. xyz' - [foo, bbbar, xyz] obviously a for loop catching just chars could do the trick, but I'm looking for a more elegant way. Anyone can help? A simple regular expression would work: import re s = 'foo bar- blah/hm.lala' re.findall(r\w+,s) ['foo', 'bar', 'blah', 'hm', 'lala'] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Simple regex with whitespaces
Which of course does not work. I cannot express the fact: sentence have 0 or 1 whitespace, separation of group have two or more whitespaces. Any suggestion ? Thanks a bunch !

A quick test: try: f = open(foo,r) except IOError, error: print errno.errorcode[error.errno] ENOENT It looks to me like your if statement should be as simple as: if error.errno == errno.ENOENT: print os.strerror(error.errno) Mark -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
