So just stop talking. It's funny that you guys are having a conversations about not responding to a guys post. First of all, freedom of speech, blah blah, who cares, just let him alone. But certainly don't go on his post, reply, telling people not to reply. That's like saying EVEN THOUGH I'M

Re: coloring a complex number

I'm not 100% sure about this, but from what it seems like, the reason method B worked, and not method a is because class foo(complex) is subclassing a metaclass. So if you do this, you can't init a meta class (try type(complex), it equals 'type' not 'complex'. type(complex()) yields 'complex'

Re: C Extension - return an array of longs or pointer?

I'm sorry...I just woke up and forgot my C...must have left it in the Coffee...Anyway, i made a few mistakes (can't initialize blank tuple...function should return a value, lol). static PyObject* wrap_doNumberStuff(PyObject* self, PyObject* args) { char* in = 0; char* x = 0;

Re: C Extension - return an array of longs or pointer?

All the veteran programmers out there can correct me, but the way I did it in my extension was this: static PyObject *wrap_doNumberStuff(PyObject* self, PyObject* args) { char* in = 0; char* x = 0; long* result = 0; int i = 0; PyObject* py = PyTuple_New()

Confused on Kid

Hey, so I heard about the TurboGears posting and decided to investigate. I watched some of their video on building a wiki in 20 minutes and was totally blown away because I'm used to python...straight python, not melding together 4 different APIs into one to blah blah. ANYWAY. I was inve

Re: Windows installer, different versions of Python on Windows

When you install Python it plug entries into the registry, so that when you go to install add-ons that are pre-compiled binaries, they look into the registry for the python directory. If you can find out how to manipulate the registry so that the binaries would recognize different installation

Re: new forum -- homework help/chit chat/easy communication

Hrm...i find it demeaning to relegate Python to a scripting language while Visual Basic is in the "software development" section. Python so outdoes VB in every way shape and form. > I've launched a new forum not too long ago, and I invite you all to go > there: www.wizardsolutionsusa.com (clic

Re: recursive function

Is there no way to implement your idea in a classical loop? Usually the syntax is cleaner, and there is no limit (except the limit of the range function in certain cases). For example what would be wrong with. def foo(j): while j < n: j+=1 return j I don't know much about th

Re: Help with chaos math extensions.

Well, I didn't buy it JUST to compile python extensions, I'm looking to write C++ apps as well, I just use python for a lot of math and science simulations, and I got VS .NET at heavy discount since I'm a student. > Brandon K wrote: >> In case you missed it, I said I have

Re: Extending Python

I own Python in a Nutshell, as one person pointed out. Alex Martelli does a great job of introducing the concepts, as long as your'e familiar with C. Additionally he covers wrapping (which is sounds like you're trying to do) with SWIG, Pyrex, and a few other options. It's a great book, I hav

Re: Help with chaos math extensions.

In case you missed it, I said I have windows XP. Windows XP pre-compiled python binaries are built on VS .NET 2003. In order to build extensions, you need the compiler the interpreter was built on, or at least that is what is reported to me by calling setup.py. If I was using linux, which I
