I suspect the best way to generate a scientific list of FAQ is
by scanning the subjects in the list archives. But here are
a few more:
Special function _xxx_ doesn't work - double underscore needed
Lack of indentation or inconsistent indents - inc tabs and spaces
How to name an object based on user input - use a dictionary usually!
How to get an attribute of an object by name - getattr()
How does Python do my favourite PHP/Perl/VB trick
Various possibilities here
Binding functions to widgets
ie not using parens after the function name
How do I read the output from a program called via os.system()
popen, command and the new Popen class
Changing elements in a mutable object changes the object for
all references
assignment versus equality in x=x+1
That should keep you busy :-)
