circular iteration

hi, is there a faster way to build a circular iterator in python that by doing this: c=['r','g','b','c','m','y','k'] for i in range(30): print c[i%len(c)] thanks, Flávio -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Python serial data aquisition

Hi, I am using pyserial to acquire data from an A/D converter plugged to my serial port. my hardware represents analog voltages as 12bit numbers. So, according to the manufacturer, this number will be stored in two bytes like this; |-bits(1-8)---| Byte1: x x x n1
