Skip: being you a Python old timer, I think you are just grumbling for no good reason. :) Before anything else, people are already jumping into implementation details, optimization, syntax, etc. I am barely starting to look at whether there have been previous existing efforts, and if so, why were they discarded, etc. > > What exactly have you given me that I couldn't have done with > > x = 1 > x += 1 > I come back again to repeat it one more time: the compile() function already exists and works in Python. Before you do your posting, please think about the compile() function first. (Do I need to say it one more time? I don't mind.) So, let me try to pretend I am Skip Montanaro, and follow through with the process. (a) OK, I have been told that compile() function exists in Python. (b) I am complaining that I can do x = 1 x += 1 without resorting to codeblocks. So there is no need for codeblocks. Codeblocks are useless, good for nothing. (c) OK, one more time, I have been told that compile() function exists and works in Python. Everytime I talk about codeblocks, I need to think about the compile() function first. (d) Aha! So by analogy, there is no need for the compile() function in Python. I get it now! (e) Wait a second... searching through the Python newsgroup archive I find hundreds if not thousands of messages related to the usage of the compile() function. So the compile() function can't be useless. Either thousands of Python users are wrong, or I have not been careful in my thinking process. (f) Hmm... let me look at those messages and try to understand how people are using the compile() function. (g) Aha! The compile() function is not useless. I know how to use it, now. (h) Aha! Codeblocks are not useless. (i) Aha! So codeblocks are analogous to the compile() function, the only difference is that codeblocks are compiled at compile time. The compile function compiles the code string at runtime. (j) Wait, I think Hung Jung has said everything before in his messages. Bingo! Now you get it. Hung Jung

Re: Compute working days

How about: from datetime import date, timedelta # Define the weekday mnemonics to match the date.weekday function (MON, TUE, WED, THU, FRI, SAT, SUN) = range(7) def workdays(start_date, end_date, whichdays=(MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI)): ''' Calculate the number of working days between two dates inclusive (start_date <= end_date). The actual working days can be set with the optional whichdays parameter (default is MON-FRI) ''' delta_days = (end_date - start_date).days + 1 full_weeks, extra_days = divmod(delta_days, 7) # num_workdays = how many days/week you work * total # of weeks num_workdays = (full_weeks + 1) * len(whichdays) # subtract out any working days that fall in the 'shortened week' for d in range(1, 8 - extra_days): if (end_date + timedelta(d)).weekday() in whichdays: num_workdays -= 1 return num_workdays

Strange terminal behavior after quitting Tkinter application
by Chris 4 নভেম্বর, 2020

4 নভেম্বর, 2020

Hi, I'm puzzled by some strange behavior when my Python/Tkinter application quits (on linux): the terminal from which I started Python is messed up. If start up python, then import the code below, then start the program with Application(), then click the Quit button, my terminal never prints anything again (such as commands I type). <code> import Tkinter import sys class Application(Tkinter.Tk): def __init__(self,**config): Tkinter.Tk.__init__(self,**config) Tkinter.Button(self,text="Quit",command=self.quit_application).pack() def quit_application(self): sys.exit() </code> Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for your help. Chris

embedding python - PyImport_ImportModule returns null
by jkpangtang＠yahoo.com 28 মার্চ, 2019

28 মার্চ, 2019

I am trying to embed python within a c program, but I can't get PyImport_ImportModule() command to load my module. Please let me know what I'm doing wrong. -- #file func.py def func1(): print "inside func1()" -- //main.c int main() { PyObject *pFunc, *pModule; Py_Initialize(); pModule=PyImport_ImportModule("func"); //fileread.py if(pModule==NULL) { PyErr_Print(); fprintf(stderr,"Failed to load \"%s\"\n","func"); } //etc.... } --- Both main.c and func.py are in the same directory. I run main and get the error Failed to load "func", meaning that PyImport_ImportModule returns NULL. What am i doing wrong? Thanks in advance for the help

Python Interview Questions
by Krypto 10 জানুয়ারি, 2019

10 জানুয়ারি, 2019

Hi, I have used Python for a couple of projects last year and I found it extremely useful. I could write two middle size projects in 2-3 months (part time). Right now I am a bit rusty and trying to catch up again with Python. I am now appearing for Job Interviews these days and I am wondering if anybody of you appeared for a Python Interview. Can you please share the questions you were asked. That will be great help to me. Thanks,

SWIG+Distutils - no harmony?
by m.bless＠gmx.de 7 জুলাই, 2018

Getting courageous I try building 'example.pyd' from the SWIG 'Simple Example' using SWIG and the Distutils. Looks promising but doesn't succeed. I didn't modify 'example.c' and 'example.i'. Problems/questions: (1) Is 'setup.py' ok? (2) BEWARE: What's really shocking: After see (unsuccessful) python setup.py build -cmingw32 the original 'example.c' is GONE AND AWAY - replaced by the wrapper. (3) What's going wrong?

Writing an assembler in Python
by Giorgos Tzampanakis 20 জুন, 2018

20 জুন, 2018

I'm implementing a CPU that will run on an FPGA. I want to have a (dead) simple assembler that will generate the machine code for me. I want to use Python for that. Are there any libraries that can help me with the parsing of the assembly code?

Why there is no "setdefaultencoding" in sys module?
by crow 15 ফেব্রুয়ারি, 2018

15 ফেব্রুয়ারি, 2018

Hi, everyone I'm a new hand at python. I tried to set system default encoding by using "import sys; sys.setdefaultencoding('utf-f')", but I got error message: >>> sys.setdefaultencoding('utf-8') Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'setdefaultencoding' Then I checked dir(sys), seems there was no function named "setdefaultencoding" in "sys" module. But in python's document, it said I should use sys.setdefaultencoding. So, my questions: why there is no setdefaultencoding in sys module? if I want to change system's default encoding, what should I do? Thanks in advance
