I noticed that that the link to that section is gone. The page seems to be there when I use the url that is stored on my computer. Unrelated but I will mention that It is sad to see that dr dobs python newsletter has vanished, I enjoyed reading that from time to time. -- http://mail.python.o

Steven, it works fine to some cases. I have problem only when last line is a comment and before it I have an indentation. It is a specific case, and it is not a common case. >>> compile("for i in [1,2,3]:\n pass\n#end", "test_file.py", "exec") What I understanded about Benjamin's answer is compi

Re: function that counts...

For this kind of problem you should avoid all that stringification. I find it best to deal with sequences of digits of a fixed length and go from there. For example: def count1(m, n, cache={}): """Number of digit sequences of length `n` summing to `m`.""" if n < 0 or m < 0: return

How to unescape a raw string?

How can I unescape a raw string so that it behaves as a non-raw string? For example, if I read the string "\n\t A B C\" D E F \xa0 \u1234" from a text file, how can I convert (unescape?) this string so that \n, \t, \", \x, and \u get converted to a newline, tab, double quote, hex encoded and unico

Best practice for string substition with gettext

Looking for best practice advice on what string substitution technique to use when using gettext(). Or do all techniques apply equally? I can think of at least 3 string techniques: 1. Classic "%" based formatting: "My name is %(name)s" % locals() 2. .format() based formatting: "My name is {nam
