I have been browsing through creating a Python module for common
custom functions that I frequently use, but I am wondering, is this
the best method, and is it necessary?
Really all I need is to import functions from another plaintext Python
source file, how might I do this?
What would merit the ne

I hope somebody will be able to help me here.
I am trying to solve some physical problems that will require the generation of
some function in terms of some parameters. These functions are derived from
matrix operation on “characters”. Are there ways numpy/scipy perform matrix
operations on cha

Dennis Lee Bieber presented a code snippet with two consecutive statements
that made me think, "I'd code this differently". So just for fun ... is
Dennis's original statement or my "_alt" statement more idiomatically
Pythonic? Are there even more Pythonic alternative codings?
