newbie file/DB processing

I am in the process of learning python. I have bought Learning Python by Mark Lutz, printed a copy of Dive into Python and various other books and looked at several tutorials. I have started a stupid little project in python and things are proceeding well. I am an old time cobol programmer from

Comparing 2 similar strings?

How do you compare 2 strings, and determine how much they are "close" to each other? Eg. aqwerty qwertyb are similar to each other, except for first/last char. But, how do I quantify that? I guess you can say for the above 2 strings that - at max, 6 chars out of 7 are same sequence -

Offline debuggimg

Hi all, with my last initiative (logging by intercepting open calls) I succeded (with the essential help of Fredrik Lundh), but I must confess that the method is too complicated... I think that a better result could be obtained by offline debugging. I explain: debugging is mainly an interactive a

I've troubles to let my app take off using pysqlite. What I wonder most for now is that "pysqlite2.dbapi2.OperationalError: cannot commit transaction - SQL statements in progress" when I do this: t = time.time() n = len(self) while len(self): del self[0] self.comm

Build impure modules

Is it possible to build Python modules like md5.so, without building the entire python distribution? I'm working on an arm device (ipaq), and building the whole thing would take a long time... (cross-compiling with OpenEmbedded isn't working out either). Thx, -- Frederik Vanrenterghem

Re: speeding up Python script

Quick tip- Try xrange instead of range. This will use dramatically less memory if your search space is large, which will speed things up /if/ your machine is being forced to swap. Besides that, without seeing the code for your functions, it's hard to offer more advice. Your algorithm is necess
