Thank you all for your views. I was hesitating for the same reason. Now I'm clear that I shouldn't go for a blog that gives straightforward solution for the challenges. Thanks, Meena On Jun 2, 2017 7:30 PM, "Steven D'Aprano" wrote: > On Fri, Jun 02, 2017 at 05:00:37PM

Re: [Tutor] New blog that has solution for python programs

Legality is the lowest of bars. We should aim higher. I'm pretty sure that the listed sites should strongly prefer *not* to have solutions available like this. The more I think about this, the more I'm tending to say: don't do this. It may feel like charity, but the authors of the problem sets

Re: [Tutor] New blog that has solution for python programs

I'm not a fan of the idea of publishing solutions of coding challenge problems because it often violates the honor codes of institutions. Even if some sites are okay with this, the majority probably are not. Rather than muddy the water, might be best to skirt the issue. What is the problem

[Tutor] Coming from R, what's a good IDE editor? I've tried PyCharm and Spyder

Dear Python list, I am an R user learning Python. What is a good editor? 1) Pycharm PyCharm evaluates the entire script, I just want to change a few lines in the script. For example, import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np x = np.arange(0, 1,0.1) y = np.sin(2 * np.pi * x)

Re: [Tutor] New blog that has solution for python programs

The only legal concern is if you're copying challenges directly from the sites; someone has some sort of ownership and copyright on the code and description. Don't copy / paste anything and you'll be fine. If you do, check the license first (it may be open source). On Fri, Jun 2, 2017 at

This appears to be a duplicate of the message you sent on 31st May. Please don not send multiple copies of the same message, it fragments the threads and messes up the archives for searching. One message is sufficient, if you don't get a response it probably means nobody knows the answer (or maybe

[Tutor] Issue with wsgi_ref.simple_server - sometimes very slow!

Hi All, I'm facing a really strange behavior with python's wsgi_ref.simple_server module. I have the following setup: - Raspberry Pi 2 - Ubuntu Mate 16.04 - Python3.5 - I have the following simple source: #!/usr/bin/env python3 import wsgiref.simple_server def my_func(env, start_response):
