Proposal: Ignore all empty entries within $PYTHONPATH

All: I propose that all empty entries with $PYTHONPATH be ignored. This would eliminate some accidents that can lead to security problems. I thought it'd be easiest to explain by drafting a PEP, so please see this first draft below. Thanks! Comments welcome. --- David A. Wh

RE: Didn't understand the output of the following Python 3 code with reduce function?

All the numbers in the nums list don't matter and aren't used. Only the first number, and how many there are. https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/functools.html#functools.reduce Basically it's doing ADDS(1, 2) which returns 2 that 2 gets fed back into ADDS(2, 3) which returns 3 that 3 gets fed ba

Proposal: SimpleNamespace "recursive" parameter

It would be nice if you could do this to create a "nested" SimpleNamespace: >>> d = {"_meta": {"fields": ({"name": "field0"}, {"name": "field1"})}} >>> sns = SimpleNamespace(**d) >>> print(sns._meta.fields[0].name) # This is what I wish you could do 'field0' SimpleNamespace does this though: >>>

Re: Are instances of user-defined classes mutable?

n dictionary # d doesn't "know" that myobj1 and myobj2 are "the same" ``` This difference in behavior is due to the default __hash__ and __eq__ methods for myclass, which don't consider the attributes of each instance, whereas the hashing and comparison of tuples does consider the contents of the tuple. - DLD -- David Lowry-Duda -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

RE: Is there anything in the script which could cause it to not run its full course please?

Not necessarily the cause of your problem, but if you're going to compare dates it should be as objects, or as text as year-month-day. Here you're comparing dates as text in day-month-year format. So January first comes before May 4th 2020 "01-01-" < "04-05-2020" ... 04-05-2020 09:30:

RE: Multiprocessing queue sharing and python3.8

Attempting reply as much for my own understanding. Are you on Mac? I think this is the pertinent bit for you: Changed in version 3.8: On macOS, the spawn start method is now the default. The fork start method should be considered unsafe as it can lead to crashes of the subprocess. See bpo-33725.
