Shared memory python between two separate shell-launched processes

Hi guys, I'm working on debugging a large python simulation which begins by preloading a huge cache of data. I want to step through code on many runs to do the debugging. Problem is that it takes 20 seconds to load the cache at each launch. (Cache is a dict in a 200Mb cPickle binary file). So

Hide comments in emacs python mode?

Hi guys, I'm playing with Python in emacs, with python mode. I'd like to be able to press a key to toggle the code comments on and off -- to switch between beautiful clean Python code, and the full text that tells me what's going in in English. Is this currently possible? I know there is a hide

Re: newbie: self.member syntax seems /really/ annoying

hmm, I guess this is the difference between numerical programming and the rest -- sure, if I was writing a database server or something it would be great to have thisObject.veryLongName to know what everything is -- however when you are implementing a model from a published paper, the variables ten

Re: newbie: self.member syntax seems /really/ annoying

Thanks guys -- yeah these two stategies (short s.varname; and explicit rescoping, a=self.a etc) are more or less what I was using. That's still kind of annoying though. The s.varname approach still makes numerical code much harder to read. I had a nasty bug with the boilerplate approach when for

newbie: self.member syntax seems /really/ annoying

I've just started playing around with Python, as a possible replacement for a mix of C++, Matlab and Lisp. The language looks lovely and clean with one huge exception: I do a lot of numerical modeling, so I deal with objects (like neurons) described mathematically in papers, by equations like
