What is the construct **?

It calls setup with all the elements of config as if they had been
passed as discrete arguments.
def x(foo, bar):
print foo
print bar
args = {'foo': 1,
'bar': 2,
}
x(**args)

python for android anyone?
Ive been wanting to try the sl4a for a new android phone Ive got hold of as spelt out at http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/10940 Has anyone any experience/dos/donts for this? I am writing this while the update of the android sdk is happening and its taking forever. So just wondering if its worth the effort. Any specific tips will of course be welcome but also the general idea -- is android really python friendly (yet)? Thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

One of my co-workers used it for something, and I've been looking into it but haven't tried it yet. One issue is there's not a real nice way to access the Android GUI stuff for it, and there's no tkinter port. Some websearch indicated someone was working on one, but right now there seems to be no code available. The simplest way to write a GUI application with it seems to be use a web browser control, with HTML layout and javascript actions. Yikes :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I can't comment on its usefulness for app development, but looking over the article, it looks like for any such development you'd still be better off grabbing the Android SDK. ~Temia -- When on earth, do as the earthlings do. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

You might take a look at Kivy http://kivy.org/ "It is built with Cython ( C extensions for Python ) and, in order to create apps, Python knowledge is required. The platforms currently supported are Linux, Windows, Mac OS X and Android." The gallery is impressive http://kivy.org/#gallery I have very limited experience with Kivy using Debian Linux as the development platform and installing a couple of simple demo apps on an ArchOS tablet running Android ICS Back at the first of this month I had problems trying to build android packages using the newest versions of the android sdk / ndk packages on Debian Advice at the time was to drop back a version and try again or wait for kivy versioning to catch up a bit -- Stanley C.

It expands the dict "config" into keyword arguments. A single * expands
to positional arguments.
A simple example:
args = [1, 2, 3]
kwargs = {'x': 4, 'y': 5}
somefunc(*args, **kwargs)
is expanded to
somefunc(1, 2, 3, x=4, y=5)

Bleh. Who came up with this user interface? I call confusing output like this a UI bug. But after playing around with various small files, it *seems* to me that the "Files that need to be modified" actually means "Files that include something that a fixer cares about, whether or not it gets modified" (in this case, isinstance). -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
