Hello,
I want to append new input to list SESSION_U without erasing its
content. I try this:
...
try:
SESSION_U.append(UNIQUES)
except NameError:
SESSION_U = []
SESSION_U.append(UNIQUES)
...
I would think that at first try I would get the NameEr
For a project I'm working on I need a way to retrieve the source
code of dynamically generated Python functions. (These functions
are implemented dynamically in order to simulate "partial application"
in Python.[1]) The ultimate goal is to preserve a textual record
of transformations performed

Yes, it's caret, but no, it's KA-rit, almost the same as
carrot. It's straight from Latin, with no detour through
French.

Hi Folks
thanks a lot all. All solutions work fine.
while I am doing my home work.
Reading "Learning Python" and much more.
Let me ask again to close my doubts:

>>> d = reduce(lambda x,y: {y:x}, reversed(l), {'/':[1,2,3]})

I have an text file with the following numbers
1
3
5
7
3
9
Now the program reads in this file. When it encounters a '\n', it will
do some stuff and then move to the next line. For example, it will
read 1 and then '\n'. When it sees '\n', it will do some stuff and go
on to read 3.

I had to do some fishing around to figure this much out. Hope it helps.

It's the XOR operator. Try "help('^')" for more detail.
By the way, it's "caret", not "c

Hey Everyone,
Just curious - I'm working on a program which includes a calculation of a
circle, and I found myself trying to use pi*radius^2, and getting errors
that data types float and int are unsupported for "^". Now, I realized I was
making the mistake of using '^' instead of "**". I've correct

Can I put this (translated) in the german python wiki?
I guess it might help more people to understand some decisions taken
during python's development - and I'm to lazy to do something similar
myself ;)
