Re: Quick help needed: how to format an integer ?
One possible solution. Don't know how efficient it is though. :-)
>>> def put_decimal(s):
... return ''.join( [ [s[i], '.%s' % s[i]][(len(s)-i)%3 == 0] for i
in range(0, len(s))])
...
>>> put_decimal("10001234")
'10.001.234'
>>> put_decimal("12622")
'12.622'

creating single-instance executables using python/py2exe
Hi, I have created an application using python/wxPython and py2exe. I have associated a certain file extension with this application so that when I double-click the file, my application is launched. The application runs fine except that a new instance is created when I double click on two different files. Is there a way in which I can make sure only one instance is created? Any additional files are opened in the same running instance?

Re: Please suggest on the book to follow
Hi, Probably the best resources for learning Python are available online. Here are a few sites that you might find helpful: 1. http://byteofpython.info/ 2. http://www.diveintopython.org/ -- Writted by Mark Pilgrim, covers many advanced material. The site says /"Dive into Python"/ is a "Python book for experienced programmers." 3. http://gnosis.cx/TPiP/ -- "Site for Text Processing in Python", a book by David mertz.

implementing singleton class at the module level
Hi, I was looking at ways to implement a Singleton class. I saw some methods described on the PythonSingleton wiki (http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?PythonSingleton). I implemented the following. module: A.py -- class Singleton: def __init__(self): #do something singleton_instance = Singleton() Then in any other module (eg B.py): from A import singleton_instance singleton_instance will be created only once and can be reused in other modules. But is this ok? I am trying to figure out what are the disadvantages of using the above method. I would appreciate any comments. thanks. regards, Satchit -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: renaming 'references' to functions can give recursive problems

So it was recursive. While in the former case you called f, which pointed to fA, but not to newFA. Probably the following will make it clearer: >>> def fA(input): ... print "inside fA" ... return input ... >>> def newFA(input,f=fA): ... print "inside newFA" ... print "f is pointing to: ",f ... return f(input) ... >>> fA = newFA >>> fA(2) inside newFA f is pointing to: inside fA 2 >>> fA >>> newFA Thus f and fA do not point to the same function object when you execute the statement fa(2). This f is called once and terminates. thanks, Satchit -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: tree data structure
Hi,
You could use Python dictionaries as trees. Example:
to represent a simple tree:
'a' <- ( 'b' , 'c' )
'b' <- ( 'd', 'e', 'f')
'e' <- ( 'g')
'f' <- ('h', 'i', 'j')
treeD = { 'a' : (
{ 'b' : (
'd',
{ 'e' : 'f' },
{f : ( 'h', 'i', 'j' )}
)
},
'c'
)
}
hope this helps.

Re: dictionary: sorting the values preserving the order

i.e. I would like to get the keys in the sorted order of values.
I did google around a little bit. One solution to a similar problem
suggested is:
# Courtesy:

def sortedDictValues3(adict):
keys = adict.keys()
keys.sort()
return map(adict.get, keys)
This gets a list sorted by the keys. How would I get a revised
dictionary
sorted by its values.

Re: A ClientForm Question
Hi, ClientForm and Mechanize like tools do not execute javascript . You will normally have to do them manually in your python code itself. In your case, if you have a button, which (and I assume) executes some javascript code that sets some hidden variable and/or changes the 'action' attribute of the form, you will have to change/assign those elements in your python code itself. ClientForm and mechanize can get tedious to use when one has a lot of JavaScript functionality in the form. Hope this answered your question... :-) regards, Satchit narke wrote: John J.

Re: Removing dictionary-keys not in a set?
Hi,
I am not sure if this way is a good one, but it certainly is consise.
Also sometimes, it's better to go for a simple approach than the consise
one (for readability). With the abive disclaimer, I present my solution:
d1 = {1 : 2, 3 : 4, 5 : 6, 7 : 8, 9 : 10 }
s1 = [ 1, 5, 7 ]
# assuming you are using python 2.3.5
import sets
d2 = dict( [ ( x, d1[ x ] ) for x in sets.Set( d1.keys() ).
intersection( sets.Set( s1 ) ) ] )

Hi,
I'd like to remove keys from a dictionary, which are not found in a

I can create a new dictionary, or a loop over all keys and test them
for set-membership, but I was wondering if there was a smart way to
express this in 1 or 2 concise statements that I'm not aware of.
So are there smarter ways to get the intersection of dictionary and set
into a dictionary than the following pseudo-code:
# Variation 1
d2 = {}
for key in s: d2[key] = d1[key]
# Variation 2
for key in d.iterkeys(): if key not in s: del d[key]
And if there's no smarter way, then which of these two options would
give best performance?
