RE: [Python-3000] bug in modulus?

from a beginner, but I don't think I could implement a non-trivial numerical algorithm. (Well, I could make it work, but I'm betting it would be non-optimal or have corner cases of failure that an expert could point out.) -- Michael Chermside -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python

RE: a question from a newcomer to this language

that it needs to be solved using exec, try posting it here... the people on this newsgroup are very good at solving challenges like that. But try it yourself first... you may learn something. -- Michael Chermside -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

using python from c/c++

RE: lstat(fileName)[ST_SIZE]

that it doesn't handle file sizes larger than MAXINT on your box... hardly any OS's allowed such a thing back then. I recomend using a newer version... 2.4.1 is quite nice. -- Michael Chermside -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

RE: line-by-line output from a subproce

by the file iterator is 8192 bytes, which clearly might be too much. Jp Calderone writes: def iterread(fobj): return iter(fobj.readline, '') Thanks folks... that did it nicely! -- Michael Chermside -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

string goes away

and testing will show you what to fix. (Using a better algorithm is a different story... do that whenever you need it.) -- Michael Chermside -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
