Very strange. With FF 1.0.7, I can just get the buttons to violate the
next column if I "View>Page Style>Large Text", but I wouldn't have noticed
it unless Tim had pointed it out. Tim's

Again, with FF 1.0.7 (on FC4 Linux BTW), the left column no longer
violates the right. However, "View>Page Style>large text" makes the
button annotation small

I have a lousy little Python extension, generated with the generous help
of Pyrex. In Linux, things are simple. I compile the extension, link it
against some C stuff, and *poof*! everything works.
My employer wants me to create a Windows version of my extension that
works with the vanilla Python
Thanks to Michael and Nick, I can now cross-compile my Pyrex extensions
for bog-standard Python 2.5. As I stumbled around in the dark trying to
bump into a solution, I was bolstered by the belief that at least two
other people had found the light at the end of the tunnel.
I had been using a cruft

I think of it this way: you randomly pick a entry out of a dictionary,
then roll a 100-side die to see if the pick is "good enough". Repeat
until you find one, or give up.
import random
def rand_weighted_pick(weighted_picks):
for i in range(100):
name, prob = random.choice(weighted_p
Here's my two cents -
I started with the official tutorial. It seemed up to date to me.
Things that changed from 2.4 to 2.5 changed in the tutorial as well. I
still refer to it every few days, because it had been a useful
reference for the basic data types. I like that it seemlessly links
into
kslash:
print "\\library.zip"
If you don't use the double backslash, you'll eventually have a
problem, especially in Windows, which unfortunately uses the backslash
as a directory seperator. You might also want to look at os.sep and
the os.path.* functions, if you are interested in making your code work
on different platforms.

It seems the concensus is that empty enums should be allowed for
consistancy, and to support the loop that doesn't. I thought I'd find
some data points in other languages as a guide:
* C - builtin, empty enumerations not allowed
* C++ - builtin, empty enumerations allowed. C++ doesn't have
itera
Every time, or just this run?

Alas, somehow this URL was split in two, and all the kings horses and all
the kings men can't seem to put it back together again (at least in my
browser).

If you are int
1. Try os.popen:
>>> import os
>>> os.popen('echo Hello World').read()
'Hello World\n'
2. Try a test environment built for testing shell commands, such as

As long as you are optimizing, addition is slightly faster than
multiplication:
$ python2.4 -mtimeit 'h=1;h*=2'
100 loops, best of 3: 0.286 usec per loop
$ python2.4 -mtimeit 'h=1;h=h+h'
100 loops, best of 3: 0.23 usec per loop
Of course, that's only a 20% decrease, so it might not be wo

Hi,
How can I implement something like C++'s conditional compile.
if VERBOSE_MODE: print debug information
else: do nothing
But I don't want this condition to be checked during runtime as it
will slow down the code.
Thanks in advance.
