Re: English-like Python
Python is English-like enough that everybody including non-programmers can
understand it.e.g
# Import the operating system module
import os
# define new function
def open_dir_tree(path):
for File in os.listdir(path):
file_or_dir = os.path.join(path, File)
# Read the line below, this is almost full english language
if os.path.isdir(file_or_dir) and not os.path.islink(file_or_dir):
open_dir_tree(file_or_dir)
else:
print file_or_dir
open_dir_tree(".")

Re: book recommendation for Python newbie?

Creating single .exe file without py2exe and pyinstaller
I have written a small application of about 40-45 lines which is about 4KB, so I want to create a single .exe file from it, using py2exe it created unnecessary files, that just increase the size of the program and also less portable to me. What else can I use? I am on windows XP. Python 2.5 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Creating custom Database or file type
i searched on google on the above subject ( http://delphi.about.com/od/fileio/a/fileof_delphi.htm). what does it take to create a custom database or file type? something like mini-Sqlite or some other way that the file will look secure and can be read on my application runing platform. I already knew and used a lot of file formats/Database (Pickle, MySql, XML) but for learning purpose i want create a very simple one that i can, add, update and delete.

Socket Programming and Data transer 'advice'
I am planning to develop School Database Management System that will run on Windows, Linux and Mac. The application will be Server/Client and GUI based. Modules I intende to use are: Python socket module, wxPython for GUI, Open GL for image processing , email and so on. This is my first real python project and I really want to test myself with this application. Some planned features is:- SERVER Manage Client connections Handling Student/User registration Handling backup will also act as IM server (that will allow users to chat sometime) CLIENT Connect to sever Act as IM client Retrieve data from server. I will not be able to list all features. My Question is: What is the best database to use? (Flat file, cPickle, MySql, Sqlite,XML etc) Security to make sure data is safe How are binary data transferred from location x to y?, and during the transferring what should happen if not fully transferred and assume power goes off. Start all over again or continue? What is the secret behind transparent file transfer like the one in Yahoo IM (I can see what i`m transferring to you, u as well). Audio streaming. My intension here is to know what to do or read more and not asking you to write code for me Just your advice. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
