Re: Remove integer from float number

Ahh yes you have to put parenthases around the string formatting to remove the integer using indexes. Thanks, that's just what I needed! Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Counting nested loop iterations

What is the best way to count nested loop iterations? I can only figure to use an index but that seems kludgy. index = 0 for animal in zoo: for color in animal: index += 1 Thanks, Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

s variables is bad because they are not related to the state of the "PeptideEvaluator". How can I avoid having to pass the same parameters all over a class?

Is it better to use class variables or pass parameters?

This one has always bugged me. Is it better to just slap a "self" in front of any variable that will be used by more than one class method or should I pass around variable between the methods? FlamewarNOW! jk, I really do want other opinions. Thanks, Derek -- http://mail.python.org/mai

Great! That worked fine after I played with it for a bit. One last question though. How do I label the ticks with the product of the exponentiation? For instance: 100 instead of 10**2 Thanks for all the help, Derek Basch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
