Hi, I need to use the following code but in java.
END_DELIM = '\n##\n' def start_delim(data_len): return '\n#%s\n' % (data_len) data = "%s%s%s" % (start_delim(len(data)), data, END_DELIM) Can anyone help me to understand what it means: I am guessing now: a function defined "start_delim" takes the length of a data string. function does modulo on something. This something I am not sure of :-) Does '\n#%s\n' will this be evaluated to a number when %s i replaced with data_len? Then the result is used as one parameter in "%s%s%s" start_delim then for the other data END_DELIM Your help is greatly appreciated! br, //mike -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
