Or is any progress going on now? The JIT in MATLAB or Java seems to be very effective. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I don't know to which forum should I post the message I hope someone related to the Python kernel development will read & consider the idea I'm (a former? meanwhile not sure) MATLAB user & it's very annoing typing each time for example while i: print i ... instead of while i print i

Thx but is there any simpleir way, if using not class, but just struct (or something like that, MATLAB equivalent for that one)? I'm thinking of rewriting some optimization solvers (non-smooth, constrained, with (sub)gradients or patterns provided by user) to Python and I don't know currently is it

I have class A: def __init__(self, objFun, x0): #(I want to have self.primal.f = objFun) #both self.primal.f = objFun #and self.primal = None self.primal.f = objFun yields error what should I do? Thx -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pytho

Ok, thx But can I somehow determing how many outputs does caller func require? for example: MATLAB: function [objFunVal firstDerive secondDerive] = simpleObjFun(x) objFunVal = x^3; if nargout>1 firstDerive = 3*x^2; end if nargout>2 secondDerive = 6*x; end So if caller wants only [objFunVal firstDe
