The print generates a newline by default. So you either have to do the
strip() I suggested above, or use a trailing comma on the print. I
recommend the former.

[Tutor] help with running perl script that writes to a text file
Hello, I want to automate the following manual process from DOS promp: c:/scripts/perl>perl fix.pl base.gtx >base.txt Here is my python script: path="c:/scripts/perl/" subprocess.call(['perl','fix.pl','base.gtx >base.txt',path]) I also tried this alternative: subprocess.Popen(['perl','fix.pl','base.gtx >base.txt',path]) #same result from this method. The above script generates the base.txt file but has no content in it. any ideas as to why the resulting text file is empty? Am I using the correct python commands to run the above manual process?

You are thinking like a C programmer, not a Python programmer. You should
almost never need to iterate over a range of numbers like this.
Instead, try something like this:
f = open('test')
head = ''
for line in f:
if line.startswith('>'):
head = line[1:].rstrip() # remove trailing newline
else:
print head + '\t' + line
f.close()
In general, you should iterate over collections of data directly. For example:
# WRONG
for i in range(len(data)):
x = data[i]
print x
# RIGHT
for x in data:
print x
# WRONG
for i in range(len(data)):
x = data[i]
if x == 'spam':
data[i] = 'ham'
# RIGHT
for i, x in enumerate(data):
if x == 'spam':
data[i] = 'ham'
Hope this helps.

Compounding that, you apparently are running inside some shell program

under the real interpreter, once you've got doubly nested loops, it gets
really hard to read.
Dear List members:
I always have problem in getting ranges:
Following is my representation of part of my file.
X1

G
C

X2
A

X3
A

I want to print the above contents in the following way:

X1 \t C
X1 \t G
X2 \t A
X2 \t G
X3 \t A
X3 \t G
X4 \t H
X4 \t H
Here is what I do
f1 = open('test','r')
da = f1.read().split('\n')
Why not just use readlines() ? That's what it's for.
dat = da[:-1]
dat
Your shell forgot to display dat here.
mpos = []

if dat[i].startswith('>'):
mpos.append(i)
mpos
[0, 3, 6, 9]
for item in range(len(mpos)):
start = mpos[item]
enda = item+1
end = mpos[enda]-1
What is this line intended to do? enda is too big, so why are you
surprised it will throw an exception last time through?
head = dat[start]
block = dat[start+1:end]
for i in block:
print head+'\t'+i
X1A
X2A
X3A
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 4, in
end = mpos[enda]-1

By the time I am looping through last item, I do not have anything to take 1
from and thus end up with that indexerror.
Could anyone please help me how to get a good habit of making this work. This
is a very wrong and bad habit.
thank you for your help in advance.
Hs.
Your mpos list is an index of starting points for records in the dat
array. But you're using it also as ending points, and you're missing
the last one. The usual way to fix this is to append one more entry to
mpos, that points just beyond the end of the list dat
mpos.append(len(dat))
Once you do that,you'll have to change your next for-loop, so it uses
the original length, perhaps like:
for item in range(len(mpos))-1:
That should get you closer to working.
However, this whole program feels like it was transliterated from BASIC
or maybe C. Any time you have to range(len(... as the list for a for
loop, something's probably wrong. The entire program could be done much
more elegantly. And now I can see Steven has posted such an improvement.

I thought that eig already sorted them. The doc claims says that the values are "not necessarily ordered" but when I run it they are in descending order of absolute value.

Making simple PDF's is almost trivial with Python. The following example
is from http://is.gd/ol6bhn (a ReportLab tutorial that was turned up with
the google search "python reportlab example"):
from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
c = canvas.Canvas("hello.pdf")
c.drawString(100,750,"Welcome to Reportlab!")
c.save()

Put your Facebook class in it's own module. Then import that module from
your GUI application module (or from whatever module needs to use it) and
create an instance of the Facebook class where you need it.
Seriously, work through a Python programming tutorial, and then a TkInter
one. You wouldn't be asking these questions if you had a proper grounding
in programming concepts in general and Python. However it's not feasible
to address that piecemeal style via a mailing list exchange here.

First of all i would like to confirm that this was my assignment and i have

facebook was available in stackoverflow( Not completely, I had to make some
changes to suit my requirements).But the rest is all mine especially
exporting the output as pdf. None of the forums were helpful regarding
this. Everywhere people have mentioned about pypdf and reportlab toolkit ,
but none of them worked for me (i have also posted the solution on
stackoverflow yesterday). After showing the output my lecturer informed me
if i could Display better using tkinter GUI. Since it wasn't thought in
class I have no idea regarding this. The problem that i encounter in
creating GUI is I already have a class *facebook*; How am i supposed to
integrate it to class "*Application*"(required to create GUI with tkinter)
which i have to integrate it with (the small bookish knowledge i possess in
the topic).
I don't expect direct solutions but if you do give them i want possible *
explanations* on it so i can understand how it was done. And since this is
a tutor i want someone who knows the answers to teach me; since you cant
study everything in class.

Thanks, that's probably what Steven meant. It's keeping "item in a_dict" consistent with "item in list(a_dict)". ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

I almost wrote this response but then I realised that Dave probably meant that "obj in dict" returns True if the dict has a key equal to obj rather than if the dict has a (key, value) pair equal to obj.

[Tutor] How to create a GUI for python using tkinter
I have attached a python program with this mail which peforms following
operations:
1.Logs in to facebook.
2.Asks the user for access tokens.
3.Gets the friend list of the user.
4.outputs the friend list as pdf.
My Problems regarding the above program are:
1.I want to display the names of my friends(in output) one in each line in
the intermediate .doc file that i have created.
example output: {'data': [{'name': 'Roy Fernandes'}, {'name':
'Aniruddh Beigh'},
I want it to be displayed as : Roy
Fernandes
Aniruddh Beigh
2.Is there a way to automate getting access tokens for the user that is
logging in? If not how to get access tokens for each user while logging in?
3.How to dislpay text with clickable links.
Eg: Something thing like alert box, wherein if you click the link you go
to the page.
4. Finally my lecturer has asked me to create a gui for the facebook login
program using tkinter library module. I don't know how to create one (the
lecturer has not thought this topic in class so i'm just clueless here). So
if someone can do it and explain me the steps it will be very helpfull.
