Thanks for all the replies. They were useful.
I think that my situation was best summed up by Mike - I need to figure
out which things I have to do as root and which I have to do as me. I
guess this only comes from experience, but it seems a good rule to
follow.
My reasons for wanting the mac add
more correct if it
returned an int in the first place.
If Mark Hammond is listening, is it possible that this can be fixed?

. In the previous version, message is set to 'wrong' for every
iteration of the loop until a valid name is found. In this version, it is
only set to 'wrong' if no valid name is found.
3. This uses a feature of python which allows you to iterate over the
contents of a list directly -
for name in names:
print name[0]
print name[1]
if x == name[0] and y == name[1]:
message = "right"
break
else:
message = "wrong"
Hope this gives you some ideas.

More verbose - sure. Less human-readable - I don't think so.
Also, intuitively one would think it would take much longer to process the
XML version compared with the JSON version. I have not done any benchmarks,
but I use lxml, and I am astonished at the speed. Admittedly a typical
form-processor spends most of its time waiting for user input. Even so, for
my purposes, I have never felt the slightest slowdown caused by XML.
Comments welcome.

ch iteration sets 'x' to the next key in

'x' is a reference to a normal python object. It does not 'know' that it
came from dictionary 'a', so you can do whatever you like with it. If you

If I initialise the value as D('6049.05'), the next value is 6172.5, so it
is not the number itself that causes the problem.

still a Decimal type.

Is there an elegant way to print-format an arbitrary length list?
How about this -

there an easy way to find out all the missing components, so that when

I learned the hard way that it is important to use conn.commit() and not

So really, the question is: Is this complexity buying you enough
performance that it's worthwhile?
Indeed, that is the question.
Actually, in my case it is not quite the question.

However, my concern is not to maximise database performance, but to ensure
that in an asynchronous environment, one task does not block the others
from responding. My tests simulate a number of tasks running co
= BackgroundTask()
args = (arg1, arg2 ...)
callback = my_callback_function
await bg_task.run(coro, args, callback)
Although it 'awaits' bk_task.run(), it returns immediately, as it is simply
waiting for run_in_executor() to be launched.
Hope this is of some interest.

If you're handling coroutines there is an asyncio facility for "background
tasks". The ensure_future [1] will take a coroutine, attach it to a Task,
and return a future to you that resolve

hen include the remote table in any sql
command. However, it will not enforce foreign key constraints across
databases.

Can anyone see any problem with this?
