(1. Please don't top-post. It gets everything out of sequence, and is the wrong convention for this forum 2. Be sure and do a reply-all, so that the message goes to the forum. I'm not here to give private advice. 3. Use your editor's reply-quoting so that we can tell who wrote which parts. Normally, you'll see that as either a leading ">" character or as a "!" character. And one can tell which parts were written by whom by counting the number of those at the beginning of each line)

For my real response, see the end of the message, where it belongs.

Thank you very much for your response. I think I have problem with both Python23 & Python31. Please help.

Python23 : The program works but programs written by Mark Summerfield in his book Programming in Python3 does not work.
Python 31: When I run this program it says in the pop up window "
C:\py3eg\csv2html1_ans.py is not a valid Win32 application" and on the the dos box it says Access is denied.
Below is the dos box contents


C:\>cd python31

C:\Python31>python C:\py3eg\quadratic.py
Access is denied.

C:\Python31>python C:\py3eg\quadratic.py
Access is denied.

C:\Python31>python C:\py3eg\hello.py
Access is denied.

C:\Python31>python.exe C:\py3eg\hello.py
Access is denied.

C:\Python31>cd..

C:\>cd python23

C:\Python23>python.exe C:\py3eg\hello.py
('Hello', 'World!')

C:\Python23>python.exe C:\py3eg\print_unicode.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

Please copy and paste the actual contents of your DOS box, rather than paraphrasing. COMMAND hasn't been the normal shell name since Win95 days. You can't use numbers in front of commands in any shell I've used. The error message refers to a different file than anything you specified in your commands.

What OS are you using?

Again, what OS are you using?

I have no idea what the pop up comes from, but I suspect you have some non-trivial code in that python program, perhaps that creates a gui. Is there any tkinter stuff in it?

As for "Access is Denied", it usually means you tried to access a non-existent drive, or one which isn't currently mounted. For example, referencing your CD drive with no platter in it.

I don't know why "print_unicode_table" is undefined, but apparently you're missing some code.


And the except clause changed between 2.x and 3.x, so you need to change the syntax to match the particular interpreter you're using. They're not compatible, although there's a utility to convert from 2.x to 3.x, I don't think there's anything that reverses it.

I'd suggest picking one version, and using only books and references that are compatible with it till you're comfortable with the language.
