Overall I am trying to learn OOP by porting CppSim (http://www-mtl.mit.edu/~perrott) to Python.
In CppSim, classes are defined that allow various functions to be defined, like amplifiers. In some cases they are linear: y = A*x some have offsets: y = A*x + off some are non-linear y = A*x - C*x**3 The coefficients and the function will remain constant once the function is defined. I read about the security concerns involved in using eval(). I don't expect this project to grow to the point where I require a web interface. However, since I am learning, I might as well learn the right way. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
