What version of wx/python did you try?
It is very easy to work with wx{Python, Phoenix} no matter which application
{complexity} we are talking about.
There are a lot of samples/demos on the wxpython web site.
Thank you.

It seems simpler than wx, yet is able to handle complex applications. The last time I read up on it, it didn't sound like a very good option if you want Windows compatibility. If I hadn't cared about Windows, I definitely would have picked PyGtk over wx.

I have one package that falsely [1] lists another package as a requirement, which was blocking installation as the false requirement wasn't available. Is there a way to modify that output (which would be piped to, for example, requirements.txt) to have pip install -r requirements.txt so pip ignores that one (and only that one) dependency? I'd just edit the file afterwards and delete the line. But if the package claims to need PyXML, it'll still be installed. Exactly my point. Is there any way, requirements.txt or otherwise, to tell pip to ignore what a certain package is claiming it needs? I am aware of --no-dependencies, but that (I think) is an all-or-nothing approach, whilst [1] I desire an all-except-one approach. Light finally turned on. If requirements.txt has all my installed requirements, that would include any dependencies actually needed; so I specify --no-dependencies, then dependencies not listed in the requirements.txt file will not be installed. -- ~Ethan~ -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

During college, one project was to develop a factorial subprogram using the assembly language of an imaginary, 18-bit CPU. I told the student who got the task that the only sane implementation would be a lookup table with a possible range check as in: def factorial(n): return [1, 1, 2, 6, 24, 120, 720, 5040, 40320][n] I believe he chickened out, though, and implemented a loop with multiplications.

Firebird 1.5 and Python 3.4 - is this possible?
Hi! I have an old HIS program written in Delphi. It uses Firebird 1.5 database. I need to make an interface to exchange data with other healthcare providers. I do not want to do this in Delphi, that is ancient code. It is also not an option to rewrite the whole program from scratch. I just need to add a service that runs in the background and sends/receives data. Is it possible to somehow connect and use firebird 1.5 database from Python 3? I have tried kinterbasdb with no luck. There are a number of firebird libraries out there, but none of them seems to support firebird 1.5. Does anyone know a library that can do this?
