some n00b question
I'm learning how to program python. a few questions a) I'm mostly interested in creating exe's that have to do with music -- things to help me keep track of chord progressions, transpositions, etc. can anyone point me in the direction of resources on this? b) I'm also interested in created GUI's sooner rather than later. Can anyone point me to a fast track to doing GUI's on python? thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

More Noob Questions
Hi all...this is a good group so I'm sure you'll tolerate some more noobish questions... 1) I'm also learning to program flash movies while I learn to do python. How can one implement flash movies into their python code? 2) besides Chieh's tutorials on the python.org site, anyone know of any other video tutorials for python? this style of learning suites me well. more to come! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

"Music Theory Programming" Google Group
I've been learning some programming during my little sabbatical (mostly python), and I thought it'd be cool to see if other people are interested in programming for music theory. So I started a Music Theory Programming google group. Consider yourselves invited! It'll be a place for people with different ideas to make music easier to understand using computer applications to share and collab. The address is: http://groups.google.com/group/music-theory-programming If you know how to do any language (HTML, Perl, Java, C++) etc or just interested...see ya there! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Programming Language that is Spreadsheet/Table Based
I'm looking for a programming language or module that sorta looks and feels like MS Excel (I love and think in tables), yet has the power and open-endedness of python or javascript. I'm still pretty new to python. any ideas? i've been having some fun with VBA in excel, but I want something I can save as en exe and call my own creation, y'know? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Script Bug?
okay,I'm going through this python tutorial, and according to the tutorial, I can type this: [code] myList = [1,2,3,4] for index in range(len(myList)): myList[index] += 1 print myList [/code] however, in my IDLE python shell, when I type [code] >>> myList = [1,2,3,4] >>> for index in range(len(myList)):[/code] it just gives me a prompt [code] >>> [/code] ? why doesn't it just bring me to line three? I need to have persistence, cause little snags like these discourage me. I know I need thicker skin to write code. any advice is appreciated -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Script Bug?
no, i put those there. i have restarted IDLE and it now works. a friend told me it was a bug in IDLE.

3 Simple Questions About Python/IDLE
1) why don't python / idle use numbered lines in their scripting, like basic? how do you keep track of large batches of code without them? 2) in IDLE, how do you save a program such that it can be run, say from windows the "run" function? 3) are most of you doing your script editing in IDLE or something more fully featured? 4) how are you importing previously written blocks of code into your code? cut and paste? what is the best way to organize snippets of code? thanks, peeps -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

You can't really have a level 6 question about semi colon. Also, when the boss questions are being computed, you should run more than the 'example' given as a test, otherwise users can just cheat. For example, I think one of the 'Boss' question was return the first 3 digits of PI as a list, all i did was: return [3,1,4] Hope this helps. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Twitter Client on Terminal by Python
Dear Orakaro, Cool app you have there. Please consider the following comments as feedback in the most positive sense possible: - I didn't care for the figlet, it's noise beyond anything else, if you drop it, you would drop the pyfiglet dependency as well - What's with the SQLAlchemy dependency? I checked your table definitions and if I'm not mistaken all you're using is Theme, Message, Tweet. My first question on that front is why are message and tweet stored locally? Are you doing local caching to speed things up? What about theme? Good job and take care!

But actually python 2.6(.6) gives me the following result: v: [1] x: [1, 1, 2] y: [1, 1, 2, 1, 2] z: [1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1] v: [1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1] The four variables v,x,y and z now actually share the same 'mylist'!! To get the correct results, i have to initialize 'mylist' inside of the __init__ method! Yes. See below. I think this behaviour is totally wrong, since it seems A.__init__(self) is changing the value inside of A() not inside of the object variable 'self' (that should be x or y)!! It's not wrong at all. You expect "mylist" to behave as an instance attribute, but you defined it as a class attribute. Instance attributes are naturally initialised in the __init__() method.

PEP Idea: Extended import syntax for aliasing module attributes
Hi all, I would like to propose a potential addition to Python's `import` syntax that would improve clarity and ergonomics for cases where developers want both full module access *and* a local alias to a specific attribute within that module. Currently, to get both behaviors, we typically write: import module optimize = module.optimize This works fine, but it is slightly verbose and less explicit in intent. I would like to explore syntax like: import module with module.optimize as optimize or possibly: import module with ( module.optimize as optimize, module.validate as check ) The goal is to import the full module as usual, while simultaneously assigning a local name to a chosen sub-attribute all in a single declaration. This strikes a balance between: *Readability* (makes intensions clearer) *Convenience* (avoids repetitive alias assignments) *Maintainability* (discourages `from module import *`) I am curious to hear whether this type of syntax has been considered before, or if it might be worth formalizing into a PEP. I would be happy to help develop a draft proposal if there is interest. Thank you for reading. -Omar -- https://mail.python.org/mailman3//lists/python-list.python.org
