I'm having some trouble with my if, else statements. For some reason, the

This is covered in the 'talking to the user' topic in my tutorial.
The short answer is use sys.argv

Bill this is a guess but try setting the terminal type to vt220
or vt330 or similar rather than xterm. Does that make any difference?
curses uses the termcap database to determine how int interacts with
the keyboard so changing the terminal type to somethingwell defined
might make a difference?

Hi Andradel,
Greetings:
I have two comments to make.
First, I recommend renaming your variables to be more clear. For example:
#
speedlimit = input("Please enter the legal speed limit: ")
clockedspeed = input("Please enter the clocked speed limit: ")
excessspeed = clockedspeed - sp
I think you should check the if conditions with "clocked" not speedlimit which is the differential.

More than anything, I think clearer variable names will help here.
Something like:
def main():
... speed_limit = 60
... clocked = int(raw_input("Clocked speed:"))
... miles_over = clocked - speed_limit
... fine = 50 + 5 * miles_over
... if miles_over >= 30:

Have a look at sys.argv!

Hello
I am having trouble getting my program to calculate the correct total if
the speed limit is over 90mph. For example when i enter 100 for the
clocked speed and 50 for the actual speed it returns 300 when I should
receive 500. It also seems to be skipping over the else statement of if

hi.
i create a list of all JPG files with:

the content of 'list' is now:

['DSC1.JPG', 'DSC2.JPG', 'DSC3.JPG']
but what i want is this type of list:
['DSC1', 'DSC2', 'DSC3']
i.e. the names w/o the file extension.

Hi Lawrence,
In a UNIX environment the method used to determine if a process is
running is to issue a "kill -0 pid". If the process is running the
return value will be zero (0) and -1 with errno set to ESRCH - No
process or process group can be found corresponding to that specified by
pid.
THANX

It's way past my bedtime, but any use of numpy/numarray that involves
two nested for loops to step over each element is the wrong solution
:) You need to figure out how to get rid of that inner for.
That is what is slowing you down.
