Python is simpler insofar as you can write on a higher level
than with C. Python has a GC and an intuitive syntax for
lists, tuples and dictionaries.

"Beginner", however, is a very vague term. A good scientist or engineer who (for some reason) never programmed before (or, at least, not in Python) is a totally different kind of a "beginner" than a secretary, a garbage collector or a schoolchild. Quoting: Γ╗I've found that some of the best [Software ]developers of all are English majors. They'll often graduate with no programming experience at all, and certainly without a clue about the difference between DRAM and EPROM. But they can write. That's the art of conveying information concisely and clearly. Software development and writing are both the art of knowing what you're going to do, and then lucidly expressing your ideas.Γ½ http://praisecurseandrecurse.blogspot.com/2007/03/english-majors-as-programmers .html --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-3 * Origin: Prism bbs (1:261/38) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Here's an example C++ program I wrote. It uses the class s
to provide rules for an ad hoc locale which then is used to
imbue a temporary string stream which then can parse numbers
using the thousands separator given by s.

::std::stringstream source { string };
source.imbue( ::std::locale( source.getloc(), new s ));
double number; source >> number; return number; }
int main()

They are executed in the given sequence. First, statement 0 binds the name â»countâ« to an object which has the int-value â»0â«. Next, statement 1 prints â»am an ifâ«. Now statement 1 was executed. It will never be revisited. It's history. Next, statement 2 will print "am a while" several times. It is separated from statement 2, like, totally. The statement 1 is in the remote past from where it never will return to be executed while the while loop is happily printing aways its "am a while" :-).

manipulating an existing plot !
Hello,
I already have a script that plots a polygon. But now I'm trying to script
a python class that would enable me to import the previous plot , make
instances and control it too(like specifying parameters like spacing , width,
height or the like). My approach was, to create a new layout and try to import
the exisiting plot and then try to make instances and manipulate it.
class DerivedClass(BaseClass):
def __init__(self, layout,topcell):
self.layout = pya.Layout()
self.layout.dbu = 0.001
self.topcell = self.layout.create_cell("TOP")
l1 = layout.layer(1, 0)
topcell.shapes(l1).insert(pya.Box(0, 0, 1000, 2000))
self.path = []
def add_new(self,path):
self.path.append(path)
How could I use layer mapping or any other method to accomplish this? Looking
forward to your advise. Thanks.

Best idiom to unpack a variable-size sequence
Here's a little issue I run into more than I like: I often need to unpack a sequence that may be too short or too long into a fixed-size set of items: a, b, c = seq # when seq = (1, 2, 3, 4, ...) or seq = (1, 2) What I usually do is something like this: a, b, c = (list(seq) + [None, None, None])[:3] but that just feels rather ugly to me -- is there a good Pythonic idiom for this? Thx, Rick -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Unpacking sequences and keywords in one function call
Stupid question #983098403: I can't seem to pass an unpacked sequence and keyword arguments to a function at the same time. What am I doing wrong? def f(*args, **kw): for a in args: print 'arg:', a for (k,v) in kw.iteritems(): print k, '=', v >>> f(1,2) arg: 1 arg: 2 >>> f(*[1,2]) arg: 1 arg: 2 >>> f(1,2, a=1) arg: 1 arg: 2 a = 1 >>> f(*[1,2], a=1) File "", line 1 f(*[1,2], a=1) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax Thanks, Rick -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
