Re: Import a module without executing it?

Functions and classes are created during the very execution you're trying to skip so there's no precise way to do what you want. That said, you can parse the code without executing it, and that will give you some information about defined functions and classes. It will _not_ give you actual funct

Hi You are probably typing this within IDLE. Try it after starting python in a shell like DOS or Bash. Should work then (works for me, and I also get the AttributeError in IDLE. Thanks Caleb On Tue, 07 Dec 2004 21:15:51 GMT, It's me <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Why do I get an "AttributeError:

It runs properly in a shell (bash), but on another matter: '>>> r=sys.stdin.read(1) g '>>> r 'g' '>>> r=sys.stdin.read(5) 1234567890 '>>> r '\n1234' '>>> What exactly happened to my 1234567890? I understand that I am only taking 5 characters, but where does the newline (\n) come from? Is that a

Yes, Russell, what you suggested works. I have to chew more on the syntax to see how this is working. because in the book that I have, it says: exec code [ in globaldict [, localdict] ] ... -- It's me "Russell Blau" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > "It's me"

Re: Sorting in huge files

I really do need to sort. It is complicated and I haven't said why, but it will help in finding similar keys later on. Sorry I can't be more precise, this has to do with my research. Your two other suggestions with itertools and operator are more useful, but I was mostly wondering about performanc
