Yes, that is what I was trying to do. I need to puzzle a bit on the solution, being a newbie. Thanks! -- Alan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Google AI Challenge at U of Waterloo

Eh? Just about every interesting programming challenge is mostly about algorithm selection. Try some Project Euler for example. Everyone back then has abused the "programming" word to meant doing everything (algorithms (system analysis & design), data structures, coding, testing, documentati

Need installer recommendation

Hi, I could use a recommendation on a free installer for use by an unsophisticated programmer, that would be me, for some simple programs which are a bit more than "Hello World," but only a little. Basically reading text files and processing the results. Nothing fancy. I am using PY2EXE to crea

Subclassing datetime.date

Hi all, I recently attempted to subclass the datetime.date object resulting in horror and confusion, before submitting to a has-a relationship. That's all fine and dandy, but out of curiosity I'd like to know what I'm missing. I was attempting to allow more flexible instancing of an object, like

How to print all expressions that match a regular expression

Hi, I am a fresh man with python. I know there is regular expressions in Python. What I need is that given a particular regular expression, output all the matches. For example, given “[1|2|3]{2}” as the regular expression, the program should output all 9 matches, i.e., "11 12 13 21 22 23 31 32 33"

Thank you, John. I did not find that by looking around; I must not have used the right words. The speed of the unit tests are not critical so this seems like the solution for me. Jim -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
