does anyone know if there is a collection somewhere of common python mistakes or inefficiencies or unpythonic code that java developers make when first starting out writing python code? if not, maybe we could start a thread on this.
for example, i've noticed several java developers i know write python code like this: foo_list = [...] for i in range(len(foo_list)): print '%d %s' % (i, foo_list[i]) of course, one way to do this would be to use enumerate: for i, foo in enumerate(foo_list): print '%d %s' % (i, foo) i'm guessing there is a lot of these language-x-isms that people on this list have seen. i think it would be helpful to both the new java-to-python developer and python developers in general to be aware of these. just an idea. feel free to discuss any language-x-isms, not necessarily just java-isms. bryan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
