If you need the same ordering in two lists, you really should sort the
lists - though your comparison function need not be that traditional. You
might be able to get away with not sorting sometimes, but on CPython
upgrades or using different Python interpreters (Pypy, Jython), it's almost
certain

Generators and iterators are laziness where you tend to need laziness the
most. Generator expressions are tiny generators - more full fledged
generators are supported.
Python probably won't have laziness at its core ever, but it's nice having
a dose of it. IOW, you probably won't be able to writ
How much physical RAM (not the virtual memory, but the physical memory)
does your machine have available? We know the number of elements in your
dataset, but how big are the individual elements? If a sort is never
completing, you're probably swapping.
list.sort() is preferrable to sorted(list),
You've had some good responses already, but here're two more:
1) Easiest would be to use setvbuf in the child process, if you have access
to its source. This allows you to force line-oriented buffering.
2) stdio likes to buffer to tty/pty's in a line-oriented manner, and other
things in a block-
FWIW, I do manual argument parsing, because pylint understands how to
detect typos with manual argument parsing, but not the highly dynamic
modules that parse arguments.

If the pythons you require are in synaptic (sudo to root and run synaptic),
you probably can just use them.
If not, then you, for each release, need to:
1) download a tarball using a browser or whatever
2) extract the tarball: tar xvfp foo.tar.bz2
3) cd into the newly created, top-level directory,

I've put together a comparison of some tree datastructures for Python, with
varied runtime and varied workload:
http://stromberg.dnsalias.org/~strombrg/python-tree-and-heap-comparison/
I hope to find time to add heaps to the article at some point, but for now,
it only covers trees and the treap.
Did the import semantics change in cpython 3.3a4?
I used to be able to import treap.py even though I had a treap directory in
my cwd. With 3.3a4, I have to rename the treap directory to see treap.py.

Yes, at least CPython is. Of course, java is written in C, as are many

C gives you lots of rope to hang yourself with, but if you use C well, it's
more portable than anyth
FWIW, I took what I believe to have been the 2nd generation of this code,
and put some of my own spin on it - mostly making it pass pylint, changing
the __init__ arguments to be a little more intuitive (to me), and expanding
the tests a bit.
It's at http://stromberg.dnsalias.org/svn/bloom-filter/t

If your dependencies are satisfiable with 3.2, you're better off with 3.2.
If not, use 2.7, or consider porting the dependencies yourself (assuming
those dependencies have code available).
Both 2.x and 3.x are good, but 3.x is clearly the way forward.
3.x has some annoyances corrected: more cent
