I'm not sure I understand the question completely but maybe the function
below does what you want.
def lower_case(s):
return Testing Functions-lower case: + s.lower()
print lower_case(AbCdEfG)

Hi Kathy,
The defaults only get assigned when you leave them out of the list. This
will work the way you want by setting b & c to the defaults.
print my_func(a)
When you try this;
a = "testing"
b = "defaults"
print my_func(a, b, c)

Hi Ulrich,
Ascii.csv isn't really a latin-1 encoded file. It's an ascii file with a
few characters above the 128 range that are causing Postgresql Unicode
errors. Those characters work fine in the Windows world but they're not the
correct byte representation for Unicode. What I'm attempting to d
Hi Steven,
I read through the article you referenced. I understand Unicode better now.
I wasn't completely ignorant of the subject. My confusion is more about how
Python is handling Unicode than Unicode itself. I guess I'm fighting my own
misconceptions. I do that a lot. It's hard for me to un

Hi,
I've got an Ascii file with some latin characters. Specifically \xe1 and
\xfc. I'm trying to import it into a Postgresql database that's running in
Unicode mode. The Unicode converter chokes on those two characters.
I could just manually replace those to characters with something valid but

I didn't get an error message, I'm thinking that I've got the wrong version

I don't have a clue as to where else to look to trace it down. I'm hoping
that someone here is more familiar with it and can give me some pointers.
Thanks,

I'm a developer who's been using python for a couple of years. I wrote a

same time so it most of the code kind of sucks.
