print ending with comma

I recently ran into the issue with 'print' were, as it says on the web page called Python Gotchas (http://www.ferg.org/projects/python_gotchas.html): The Python Language Reference Manual says, about the print statement, A \n character is written at the end, unless the print statement ends with a

Re: Text-to-speech

On some flavors of Windows you can use: import pyTTS tts = pyTTS.Create() tts.Speak('This is the sound of my voice.') On Mac OS X you can use: import os os.system(say 'This is the sound of my voice.') You could write a wrapper that takes a string and checks to see which OS you are on and

Catching all methods before they execute

I have run into some cases where I would like to run a class method anytime any class method is invoked. That is, if I write x.foo then it will be the same as writing x.bar x.foo for any method in class x (with the possible exception of 'bar'). The first few times I wanted to print out a data

Mapping operator tokens to special methods

I was starting to write a dictionary to map operator strings to their equivalent special methods such as: { '+' : 'add', '' : 'and_' } The idea is to build a simple interactive calculator. and was wondering if there is already something like this builtin? Or is there a better way to do what

loops - list/generator comprehensions

I wrote this little piece of code to get a list of relative paths of all files in or below the current directory (*NIX): walkList = [(x[0], x[2]) for x in os.walk(.)] filenames = [] for dir, files in walkList: filenames.extend([/.join([dir, f]) for f in files]) It works

type() takes one or *three* arguments!?

I was looking at Simon Burton's Povray.py code (part of pypov) and saw this line: globals()[name] = type( name, (KWItem,), {} ) # nifty :) where 'KWItem' was a class. It did seem nifty, but it was unclear to me what was happening. I went to python.org's online documentation which said that
