When we do:
print '%s %d' % ('hello', 10)
what special method is being invoked internally within the string-
format-specifier?
format() invokes format__
print invokes __str__
I'm basically trying to make sense of:
raise TypeError('urkle urkle %s' % list(dictionary))
<=> raise TypeError('urkle

dbm is a generic interface to variants of the DBM database […]
There is a third party

Try "dbm" which has a few options for the underlying engine.
Alternatively, try sqlite3.

I have been looking for a simple indexed file database and Berkley-db was what
I waa used to. I found that bsddb module was removed from Python3. Is there a
replacement for it?

Hello.
I'm working on a script runner for Atom.

We are trying to understand how to make python work well. I'll use a comparison
to the ruby executable because it's convenient to explain the problem.
When you invoke `ruby` from a pty, you get no output

I don't know, but if so, here's my entry:
print(*([0,"Fizz","Buzz","Fizzbuzz"][[3,0,0,1,0,2,1,0,0,1,2,0,1,0,0][i%15]]or

Somewhat related, surrogate codes are invalid Unicode and shouldn't be
allowed in Unicode strings. However, Python does allow them.

Hello,
(This problem is probably too computationally intensive to solve with Python,
though Python + Cuda could be interesting, and also Python has some interesting
expressive powers, so it could be interesting to see how Python programmers
might be able to express this problem with Python code
