I am a beginner. I want to save the output data of the following programme in
a file through the programme. Please suggest me the way. I am using Python
2.3.3 on mandrake linux 10 and using "Idle" to save the output to a file
presently.
Thanks in advance.

By the way, is there any reason why the compare func parameter is called 'key'?

max() for strings returns the largest string in an alphabetical sense.
So max(['z', 'aa']) would return 'z'.
You need to specify an ordering function, in your case, len():
max( ['z', ''], key=len)
...which will return '' because it is ordering by key.

Does the list need to be sorted? In my case, the list is sorted.
max determines whether one is larger than the other with "<" operator.
max on a list of string will determine the last

Hi, folks. I just wanted to thank Martin Walsh and Kent Johnson, both of whom
furthered my education by replying (on-list) that the "P=" syntax is used to
refer to a named group in the same regular expression, i.e., the one in which
the "P" construct was used in the first place. This is as opp
I have a list of 2300 strings.
When I call max() on the list, it returned an item with 37 characters. I am
only passing 1 argument to max().
I know for a fact that the largest item has 57 characters, and when I called
mylist.index('my_57_character_string') the index was found.

Thank you very much!
I had forgotten that unix URLs are case sensitive.
Also, I changed my 'For' statements to your suggestion, tweaked the
exception code a little, and it's working.
So, there are obviously several ways to open files. Do you have a standard
practice, or does it depend on the fil
