more advanced learning resources (code structure, fundamentals)

Hello, I've been programming in Python for a few years now. I have read most the typical learning resources, such as 'Dive Into Python', 'A Byte of Python', etc. In general I feel I have a good overview of the language. However, as I advanced toward trying to create m

Re: threads (specifically timers) and releasing resources

;re going to have to make sure it cleans up after itself, releasing whatever resources it holds. Python's reference-count semantics and cyclic gc will take care of things in the normal way once the timer-thread has completed. But you'll have to make sure it completes. If the latter, is

threads (specifically timers) and releasing resources

a new timer is created for the mode to which the user just switched. My question is: what happens with resources taken up by previous timers, whether they cancel or execute? I would hate for my program to run for a long time and slowly build up a massive list of old threads (timers), taking up

Re: where do I put resources (images, audio files) when I wrote Python program?

swer is to put read-only files right with the py* files, and writable files in the user's space. In the former case, you can find the files by parsing __file__ for one of your modules. In the latter case, it's system dependent. For those read-only resources I'd use pkg
