• How to keep same substrings in vim regex

  - by invisiblerhino

  Hi everyone. I'd ideally like a vim answer to this: I want to change [*, 1, *, *] to [*, 2, *, *] Here the stars refer to individual characters in the substring, which I would like to keep unchanged. For example [0, 1, 0, 1] to [0, 2, 0, 1] [1, 1, 1, 1] to [1, 2, 1, 1] If people know how to do this in perl or python or whatever, that would be equally good. Cheers

• MySql: How to know if an entry is compressed or not

  - by Guy

  I'm working with python and mysql and I want to verify that a certain entry is compressed in the db. Ie: cur = db.getCursor() cur.execute('''select compressed_column from table where id=12345''') res = cur.fetchall() at this point I would like to verify that the entry is compressed (ie in order to work with the data you would have to use select uncompress(compressed_column)..). Ideas?

• Compare string with all values in array

  - by Hallik

  I am trying to fumble through python, and learn the best way to do things. I have a string where I am doing a compare with another string to see if there is a match: if paid[j].find(d)>=0: #BLAH BLAH If 'd' were an array, what is the most efficient way to see if the string contained in paid[j] has a match to any value in 'd'?

• What is the easiest, most concise way to make selected attributes in an instance be readonly?

  - by Kevin Little

  In Python, I want to make selected instance attributes of a class be readonly to code outside of the class. I want there to be no way outside code can alter the attribute, except indirectly by invoking methods on the instance. I want the syntax to be concise. What is the best way? (I give my current best answer below...)

• How to make every Class Method call a specified method before execution?

  - by norm

  I want to make my Python Class behave in such a way that when any Class method is called a default method is executed first without explicitly specifying this in the called Class. An example may help :) Class animals: def _internalMethod(): self.respires = True def cat(): self._internalMethod() self.name = 'cat' def dog(): self._internalMethod() self.name = 'dog' I want _internalMethod() to be called automatically when any method is called from an instance of animals, rather than stating it explicitly in the def of each method. Is there an elegant way to do this? Cheers,

• Why are filename underscores better than hyphens

  - by Jasie

  From Building Skills in Python: "A file name like exercise_1.py is better than the name execise-1.py. We can run both programs equally well from the command line, but the name with the hyphen limits our ability to write larger and more sophisticated programs." Why?

• Get a list/tuple/dict of *all* the arguments passed to a function?

  - by Phillip Oldham

  Given the following function: def foo(a, b, c): pass How would one obtain a list/tuple/dict/etc of the arguments passed in? Specifically, I'm looking for Python's version of JavaScript's arguments keyword or PHP's func_get_args() method. What I'm not looking for is a solution using *args or **kwargs; I need to specify the argument names in the function definition (to ensure they're being passed in) but within the function I want to work with them in a list- or dict-style structure.

• Does a syntax for this exist? In any language?

  - by Michael

  It seems pretty common to me to have an argument, in a dynamically typed language that is either an Object or a key to lookup that object. For instance when I'm working with a database I might have a method getMyRelatedStuff(person) All I really need to lookup the related stuff is the id of the person so my method could look like this in python: def getMyRelatedStuff(person_or_id): id = person_or_id.id if isinstance(person,User) else person_or_id #do some lookup Or going the other direction: def someFileStuff(file_or_name): file = file_or_name if hasattr(file,'write') else open(file_or_name)

Sometimes I wonder what these programming language offer which make them top choice of IT companies, if I plan to become a freelance web developer is it worth learning C# or Java.

• How to take advantage of subprocess within Django? - Django

  - by RadiantHex

  Hi folks, I'm currently using os.popen() but have been recommended to use subprocess.popen() instead. Any ideas on how I can integrate this? It would be cool and fun to have a Python shell accessible on a Django app. But I reckon that it might be a bit complex to implement. I guess I would have to retrieve the subprocess, as a new request comes in. Any ideas?

• Is there a neater way to get the first occurrence of something?

  - by Phil H

  I have a list which contains a number of things: lista = ['a', 'b', 'foo', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'bar'] I'd like to get the first item in the list that fulfils a predicate, say len(item) > 2. Is there a neater way to do it than itertools' dropwhile and next? first = next(itertools.dropwhile(lambda x: len(x) <= 2, lista)) I did use [item for item in lista if len(item)>2][0] at first, but that requires python to generate the entire list first.

• How to apply a function to a collection of elements

  - by Cue

  Consider I have an array of elements out of which I want to create a new 'iterable' which on every next applies a custom 'transformation'. What's the proper way of doing it under python 2.x? For people familiar with Java, the equivalent is Iterables#transform from google's collections framework.

• Implementing prototypes OR instantiating class objects

  - by intuited

  I'm wondering how to implement prototypal inheritance in Python. It seems like the way to do this would be to either use a metaclass to cause instantiations to actually be classes, rather than objects, or use some magical powers to transform an existing object into a class. The second method would seem to be more flexible, in that it could be applied to existing objects of varied types, while the first would likely be more convenient for typical use cases. Insights on the practicality of these two approaches, as well as alternative suggestions, are hereby requested.

• Auto-register class methods using decorator

  - by adamk

  I want to be able to create a python decorator that automatically "registers" class methods in a global repository (with some properties). Example code: class my_class(object): @register(prop1,prop2) def my_method( arg1,arg2 ): # method code here... @register(prop3,prop4) def my_other_method( arg1,arg2 ): # method code here... I want that when loading is done, somewhere there will be a dict containing: { "my_class.my_method" : ( prop1, prop2 ) "my_class.my_other_method" : ( prop3, prop4 ) } Is this possible?

• What is the preferred syntax for initializing a dict?

  - by daotoad

  I'm putting in some effort to learn Python, and I am paying close attention to common coding standards. This may seem like a pointlessly nit-picky question, but I am trying to focus on best-practices as I learn, so I don't have to unlearn any 'bad' habits. I see two common methods for initializing a dict: a = { 'a': 'value', 'another': 'value', } b = dict( a='value', another='value', ) Which is considered to be "more pythonic"? Which do you use? Why?
