The problem seems to be with ipython, which I have been using to run
these scripts. My calling script (call.py) is:
import canaryPlaces_test as canp
sum=canp.addme(3,5)
print sum
estoc=canp.estocStn()
print estoc
The problem script is this one, named canaryPlaces_test.py:
def estocStn():
estoc={'lat':29.15,'lon':-15.667,'place':'ESTOC'}
return estoc
def addme(a,b):
sumAb=a+b
return sumAb
The ok script, named canaryPlaces.py, is identical apart from a comment
at the top of one of them. Here is output from 'diff' for the two of
them:
@suse212:~/python/mapping> diff canaryPlaces_test.py canaryPlaces.py
1c1
<
---
> # canaryPlaces
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/python/mapping>
>From the command line I get what I expect calling either
canaryPlaces_test.py or canaryPlaces.py:
@suse212:~/python/mapping> python call.py
8
{'lat': 29.149999999999999, 'place': 'ESTOC', 'lon': -15.667}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/python/mapping>
However -> Using ipython and calling canaryPlaces.py is fine, but
calling canaryPlaces_test.py gives:
In [97]: %run call
