Re: [Tutor] beginning to code

Means that your Intendentaion is not proper. You should align your print
statement and rest to the same level as if statement.
Use a proper editor that supports Python Syntax.

The way to use urllib.encode is like this:
>>> urllib.urlencode({"key":"value"})
'key=value'
>>> urllib.urlencode({"key":"value","key2":"value2"})
'key2=value2&key=value'
For your purpses, you need to construct the dict this way:
>>> urllib.urlencode({"FHI":'128,128',"FHO":'1,1'})
'FHO=1%2C1&FHI=128%2C128'
>>>
And if you are to use variables, one way to do it would be:
>>> x1,y1,x2,y2 = 1,1,128,128
>>> fhi = str(x2) + ',' + str(y2)
>>> fho = str(x1) + ',' + str(y1)
>>> urllib.urlencode({"FHI":fhi,"FHO":fho})
'FHO=1%2C1&FHI=128%2C128'

To save the output to a file, you have a open a file object and write
to it. When you are done, just close it.
If your program, open a fileobj somewhere on the top.
fileobj = open('dc-generator-output.txt','w')
And where you put the print statement, replace it with
fileobj.write(" ") # Within in the " " the output which you want
to put. One strategy would be create a string in place of your print
and write the string.
For eg.
Instead of
print '(Pole*RPM) product for various values of conductors/slot is: \n', polerpm
You will do
msg = '(Pole*RPM) product for various values of conductors/slot is: \n', polerpm
fileobj.write(msg)
And in the end, close the fileobj.
fileobj.close()

In that way, you will hone your python skills and additionally start learning the new language.

First of all, I doubt if reading a file in text format would cause any harm. Writing may screw things up.

Re: [Tutor] How to send an email using Python
Hello Samuel,
When sending through smtp.gmail.com you might need to starttls() and
do a login() before sending.
>>> import smtplib
>>> headers = "From: %s\r\nTo: %s\r\nSubject: %s\r\n\r\n" %(from,to,subject)
>>> message = headers + "Hello, How are you?"
>>> mailserver = smtplib.SMTP('smtp.gmail.com')
>>> mailserver.ehlo()
>>> mailserver.starttls()
>>> mailserver.login('username','password')
>>> mailserver.sendmail(from,to,message)
As I try it now, startls() was giving me a message " reply: '454 TLS
not available due to temporary reason\r\n'"
- As the error message says, it could be temporary.
Try it at your end and report if you succeed.
Thanks,
Senthil

What you want is to Unescape HTML entities (

What you are asking for is Python CGI programming. Look out for chapters for Alan's book. I think he has covered from the basics.

I have tried Hello Ian, That is a nice reason to get started with a language. However, you have to remember that Python 3.0 is not a new language at all. It is just a backwards impatible release of the original almighty pyhon, which just tends to increase its strength and clean its design further. I am not at all surprised that you did not find any beginner Python 3.0 tutorial. It might be coming out soon, but the curretly people migrating to Python 3.0 are ones who already know python 2k well. So, for your purposes I would suggest the following. 1) Get Beginner Python tutorial. (See Alan's tutorial in this mailing list and also google for A Byte of Python) 2) Read and understand the language well. Get comfortable upto a point where you can differentiate between string, unicode and bytes.

Rule #1 is use a standard spacing through out the code. And when copying from a certain space-setting indentation to another, the modular script will still work fine. You can use some global find/replace mechanism to do suit your setting. For eg. I remember doing :%s/\ \ /\ \ \ \ /g OR you can also run your code through pyindent or python code beautifier (Google for it, you might find one). But after using the beautifier under these situations, just rely on your eyes to do a quick check if the logic has not gone awry ( which rarely does, but still I would believe myself more than the tool). -- Senthil http://uthocode.sarovar.org ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
