Accesing Global variables in python
Hi All, I have a service written in python (on Apache 2.0) which Initializes the global variables (or objects) when request comes for it. I want to use the same objects (or varaibles) in the subsequent requests. How could this one be done in Apache 2.0? can it be done by doing some configuration ?

Executing python script in non-interactive mode on cygwin (windows)
I am facing a very basic problem as any new bie would face. I know perl and now i want to use python In perl, it is very simple , just "perl scriptname.pl" will execute the script. But i think python is worse than perl It takes to interactive mode , which i don;t want to use. "python scriptname.py" does not execute python script It was, i don't know executing it or not. 1. I placed these contents in a file named "1.py" a,b=0,1 n=5 while n<=0: print b a=b b=a+b n=n-1 print n Then 2. on "cygwin shell in windows" i gave "python 1.py" hoping that it will exeucte and give me output, but nothing was printed Does python not support teh non-interactive mode of execution I have the manuals and they dont' specify this thing anywhere. they tell use "python -c filename" Please help.

Backreferences in python ?
I have something like below in perl and i am searching for equivalent
in python:
::: Perl :::
***
while( )
{
line = $_;
pattern = "printf\( \"$lineNo \" \),";
line =~ s/"for(.*)\((*.)\;(.*)/for$1\($pattern$2\;$3/g;
}
This is used to
search for :for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++)
Replace with: for( printf( "10" ), i =0; i < 10; i++)
Where 10 is the line no.
What i tried in python was::
f = open( "./1.c", "r")
fNew = open( "./1_new.c", "w")
for l in f:
print l
lineno = lineno + 1
strToFind = "for\((.*)\;(.*)"
## For Converting int to string, i.e. line no. to string
lineNoClone = lineno
pattern = "printf(\"" + str( lineNoClone) + "\"),"
print pattern
strToReplace = "for\(" + pattern + "\1\;"
fNew.write( l.replace( strToFind, strToReplace) )
print l
fNew.close()

Re: Backreferences in python ?
My tries have with re have not yielded results::
{
strToFind = 'for*;*'
## Converting int to string, i.e. line no. to string
lineNoClone = lineno
pattern = "printf(\"" + str( lineNoClone) + "\"),"
regObj = re.compile( strToFind)
m = regObj.search( l)
if ( m != None ) :
subStrPattern1_hasInitialization = "\1"
#m.group(1)
subStrPattern2_hasRestTillEnd = "\2"
#m.group(2)
strToReplace = "for(" + pattern +
subStrPattern1_hasInitialization + ";" + subStrPattern2_hasRestTillEnd
fNew.write( regObj.sub( strToFind, strToReplace ) )
else:
fNew.write( l)
}
Here problem is , i am not getting backreferences using \1 and \2
The string : for( i =0; i < 10; i++)
is getting replace by: for *;* {
I don't believe this, they have given that \1 and \2 store
backreferences, then where r they??

http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Backreferences in python ?
I got my answer
if ( m != None ) :
subStrPattern1_hasInitialization = m.group(1)
subStrPattern2_hasRestTillEnd = m.group(2)
str = subStrPattern1_hasInitialization +
subStrPattern2_hasRestTillEnd
strToReplace = "for(" + pattern + str
This gave me my solution
But to tell u, i have not got that, why i should concatenate and then
only place it . while i was trying the same thing by concatenation it
straight to replace string, it was not working
Any body has reasons ???

Re: Calling C++ function from python script
See, i tell u, nothing is difficult in this world. I achieved the thing which i was asking for. Thanks for the advice. I used this paper: http://www.swig.org/tutorial.html for creating python modules from C code. Which is what i needed. In order to interface both things, we need convert atleast one thing to other so i choosed to convert C code to python module. The steps which i followed were: These steps were to create a python module from C code. So a mandatory condition for .c file is : it should not have main function, and any variable in any function called from main function should be declared global. 1. Creating wrapper from .i : swig -python TestCase.i (where TestCase.i is interface file containing declarations of functions and variables) 2. Creating .o's : gcc -c TestCase.c TestCase_wrap.c (TestCase_wrap.c is file genereted by swig and is a wrapper for creating a python module) 3. Shared Library: ld -shared TestCase.o TestCase_wrap.o TestCase.so Module was inserted as: 1. export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH 2. python Tc.py ( In this python file i did: "import TestCase" and then used it as "TestCase.main_module()" ** So, we don't need to write any code to do this. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: symbolic links, aliases, cls clear
its true for the processes, gone to the system mode and from there the process is not considering the shell variable any more. In case of deamons also it is the same case. For Phython programs, I am not sure , may they are also nohops, so might be not accessing the shell variables. But i think you have defined the alias to some other place the error is reported by shell that cls not found. This could be investigated if you do some tests with the system. Like alias is shell script you can open it and read it , how it invokes the command for creating aliases. etc etc. Alias: When the shell is in picture it directly replaces the string "cls" to "clear" and execute the clear. Symbolic links: are reference to the inode of the actual files, so it should work in your case. just run #which clear (O/P , you will get the location of binary say /usr/bin/clear) Now you can create the symbolic link named as cls at location "/usr/bin". this symbolic link should be a soft link to /usr/bin/clear. you can also put the symbolic links to any of the location that is displayed by $PATH variable. for any command you execute in shell, it functions in following order: (Not exactly the same, need to confirm, i might miss some of the steps) 1) check with the shell variable(whether any alias to this command exists or not!) 2) search it in the locations $PATH and execute the command is it is found. so on... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

So does that mean if we change the following code to get a logger

As per Prof. Andrew Ng, training, cross-validation and testing should have three different data-sets. If you have a small example set (for example 10,000 or may be 50,000) then you can split the example set into 60:20:20 ratio for train:validation:testing. But if you have a very large data-set (1 million, 10 million) then consider using 1% or may be lesser for validation and testing. -- Pankaj Jangid -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

My interpretation is that you want to read a file (list_of_devices.txt)
and this file contains names of other files and you want to read those
files as well and do something with them (read or print or whatever).
You can approach it like this: write a function to read a file and work
on it. Like this,
def fn(fname):
with open(fname, "r") as f:
try:
# work with f
except:
print("error")
Then use this function in your code that you have writen. Like this
with open("list_of_devices.txt", "r") as reader:
for item in reader:
try:
fn(item)
except:
print("error")
In the example that you gave, you have written contents of
"list_of_devices.txt" as
test1,test2
Take care to read them as comma separated. Or if you have control then
write them on separate lines.

This should work for the outer parenthesis:

Somewhat related to the OP's question.
So what is a good strategy in an application? I am now inclined to use
relative path and working directory both. And when there is change of
runtime context just change the working directory and assemble the
absolute path at runtime.
And to save the working directory use "abspath" as suggested by Cameron.

I have always been thinking about it and using it in my own projects. At my previous workplace there was compulsion to use Windows, so I had to setup Cygwin. And I had same level of difficulty setting up Python on Windows. So the difficulty level is same for Python and Make setup. Another advantage of using Make is that it is easy to configure portable mixed native programs with Python. To work on modern projects similar to NumPy, TensorFlow, PyCharm where half of the code is native and half Python, it is much easier to manage native part with Make. Autoconf, automake etc. utilities tells you in advance what native libraries are missing from the system - Windows or Linux. We should not forget that Data Science, Machine Learning etc. fields have helped in proliferation of Python lately. And the above mentioned libraries have great role. We should make it even more easier to manage mixed native projects portably. GNU Make is the way to go. Thanks for raising this.

Developers are advised to purge these malicious packages
``` The Python security team removed two trojanized Python libraries from PyPI (Python Package Index) that were caught stealing SSH and GPG keys from the projects of infected developers. The first is "python3-dateutil," which imitated the popular "dateutil" library. The second is "jeIlyfish" (the first L is an I), which mimicked the "jellyfish" library. ``` https://www.zdnet.com/article/two-malicious-python-libraries-removed-from-pypi/ Regards, -- Pankaj Jangid -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Accesing Global variables in multiple Requests (Apache 2.0)
Hi All, I have a service written in python (on Apache 2.0) which Initializes the global variables (or objects) when request comes for it. I want to use the same objects (or varaibles) in the subsequent requests. How could this one be done in Apache 2.0? can it be done by doing some configuration ?

OOP for System Administrator
Hi, I'm a Linux system administrator and my work requires me to write bash scripts (100-500 lines) for process monitoring, server health check and automate some manual processes. Now I've started to learn python as I want to write scripts in python rather than bash or any shell. My questions is Do I need to learn Object oriented Python in order to be good at python scripting. I know basics of OOP but personally didn't like it much. Thanks Pankaj -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Better to use a context manager, so it does the clean up on exit. for f in os.listdir( '.' ): with open(f) as fh: for (i, line) in enumerate(fh): #your code. #for loop done #context manager flushes, closes fh nicely.
