That is why labeled it OT. I was stuck and thought its day time in India and had a better chance of getting reply.

This mailing list caters to interests related to Ubuntu. For discussing or seeking help about a particular programming language, especially when it is a very generalized, language specific and unrelated to Ubuntu questions, it is better to be asked in the mailing list catering to that particular programming language or in a wide-topic mailing lists like LUGs. It's not just because it is not ON TOPIC here, but also because the chance of [1] getting a meaningful reply, [2] involving a discussion of people having more clue about it and [3] of the question and it's reply helping people searching for the same at future instance and finding it, is more in such a mailing list than here. If you're looking for quick reply, you should rather be jumping to #python and getting it sorted out.

Well, my duty is make sure all discussions are to the best interest and to the purpose of this mailing list. When there is a better place to carry discussions which doesn't concur to the purpose of this list, I just make efforts people to understand the same. Some people take in the right way, some people get offended a bit. But, am just doing my duty ;) -- --- With Regards, Parthan technofreak gpg 2FF01026 blog http://blog.technofreak.in -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
[ubuntu-in] OT: Evaluate an string variable's value to a variable in Python
Hi guys, sorry for the off topic posting, but I know there are a couple of python guys on the list, so could not resist asking here Just a quick question. For example I have class X pass Then I do x = X() x.name = 'Nazim Now my question is whether something like below is possible and how y = 'name' print x.y # How can x.y can be evaluated to x.name PS: In PHP this can be done by a $x-$y. I sure there is some way in Python also, just don't seem to remember/find it right now. Thanks in advance.
