Hello everyone,
How can I get the file name and line number in python script.
Exactly the file information we get from an exception traceback. In this case without raising an exception.
how can I use wild cars like '*' when getting a list of files inside a directory in Python? for example, I want something like:
os.listdir('foo/*bar*/*.txt')
which would return a list of all the files ending in .txt in directories that have bar in their name inside of the foo parent directory.
how can I do this?
thanks.
I am running a multithreaded application(Python2.7.3) in a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7500 @ 2.93GHz. I thought it would be using only one core but using the "top" command I see that the python processes are constantly changing the core no. Enabling "SHOW THREADS" in the top command shows diffrent thread processes working on different cores.
Can anyone please explain this? It is bothering me as I know from theory that multithreading is executed on a single core.
This whole topic is way out of my depth, so forgive my imprecise question, but I have two computers both connected to one LAN.
What I want is to be able to communicate one string between the two, by running a python script on the first (the host) where the string will originate, and a second on the client computer to retrieve the string.
What is the most efficient way for an inexperienced programmer like me to achieve this?
Hi
I am trying to perform a 2d convolution in python using numpy
I have a 2d array as follows with kernel H_r for the rows and H_c for the columns
data = np.zeros((nr, nc), dtype=np.float32)
#fill array with some data here then convolve
for r in range(nr):
data[r,:] = np.convolve(data[r,:], H_r, 'same')
for c in range(nc):
data[:,c] = np.convolve(data[:,c], H_c, 'same')
It does not produce the output that I was expecting, does this code look OK
Thanks
What's the best way of getting the last item from an iterator in Python 2.6? For example, say
my_iter = iter(range(5))
What is the shortest-code / cleanest way of getting 4 from my_iter?
I could do this, but it doesn't seem very efficient:
[x for x in my_iter][-1]
I'm looking for a way in python to find out which type of file system is being used for a given path. I'm wanting to do this in a cross platform way. On linux I could just grab the output of df -T but that won't work on OSX or windows.
I have a text document that contains a list of numbers and I want to convert it to a list. Right now I can only get the entire list in the 0th entry of the list, but I want each number to be an element of a list. Does anyone know of an easy way to do this in Python?
1000
2000
3000
4000
to
['1000','2000','3000','4000']
I am creating an application that lets users login using Google, Facebook and the website's native login. The site is being built in Python / Django.
What would be the best way to handle login, session management and user authentication?
I do not want to use the in-built Django user management. I am using Django very sparingly(URLs, templates)
I am creating a sort of "Command line" in Python. I already added a few functions, such as changing login/password, executing, etc., But is it possible to browse files in the directory that the main file is in with a command/module, or will I have to make the module myself and use the import command? Same thing with changing directories to view, too.
I downloaded a webpage in my python script.
In most cases, this works fine.
However, this one had a response header: GZIP encoding, and when I tried to print the source code of this web page, it had all symbols in my putty.
How do decode this to regular text?
Hi,
I'm use nosetests to run some tests. However, after the tests have finished running, the nosetests process just sits there, and will not exit. Is there anyway to diagnose this? Does Python have a facility similar to sending Java a kill -QUIT which will print a stack trace?
Format is like:
CHINA;2002-06-25 00:00:00.000;5,60
CHINA;2002-06-26 00:00:00.000;5,32
CHINA;2002-06-27 00:00:00.000;5,31
and I try to use Python's CSV tools to parse it but cannot understand the paragraph, source:
And while the module doesn’t directly support parsing strings, it can easily be done:
import csv
for row in csv.reader(['one,two,three']):
print row
Could someone clarify the line ['one,two,three']? How would you use it with format A;B;C?
Python has string.find() and string.rfind() to get the index of a substring in string.
I wonder, maybe there is something like string.find_all() which can return all founded indexes (not only first from beginning or first from end)?
For example:
string = "test test test test"
print string.find('test') # 0
print string.rfind('test') # 15
#that's the goal
print string.find_all('test') # [0,5,10,15]
wow i thought i knew python untill tonight.. what is the correct way to do something like this.. heres my code
a = ["one", "two", "three"]
b = a #here i want a complete copy that when b is changed, has absolutely no effect on a
b.append["four"]
print a #a now has "four" in it..
so basically i want to know, instead of the b = a step, how would i correctly make a copy of a list or dictionary so that when b is changed a does not change along with it.. thanks guys
So the setup is a slew of proprietary server/client Python applications running on one Linux box (the server) and a set of Windows 7 workstations (the clients). Everything is running smoothly until any of the proprietary Python packages needs updating.
For now I am using distutils eggs which are very easily updated with easy_install, but it is still a manual process which quickly becomes tedious as the number of applications and client workstations grow.
The ideal setup IMHO is to have the Python packages on the server so when a client application is launched on a workstation the client application can check to see whether its current Python packages are up-to-date. If not, the client application should download the newer Python package from the server, install it, and then launch as per normal.
Does this sounds familiar to anyone? I have tried to find alternatives myself, but as far as I can see there is no Python module offering this functionality. Does anyone have any home made solutions for this?
I want to run:
python somescript.py somecommand
But, when I run this I need PYTHONPATH to include a certain directory. I can't just add it to my environment variables because the directory I want to add changes based on what project I'm running. Is there a way to alter PYTHONPATH while running a script? Note: I don't even have a PYTHONPATH variable, so I don't need to worry about appending to it vs overriding it during running of this script.
In Javascript I can do this:
function A(x) { return x || 3; }
This returns 3 if x is a "non-truthful" value like 0, null, false, and it returns x otherwise. This is useful for empty arguments, e.g. I can do A() and it will evaluate as 3.
Does Python have an equivalent? I guess I could make one out of the ternary operator a if b else c but was wondering what people use for this.
Is there a general convention about exposing members in Python classes? I know that this is a case of "it depends", but maybe there is a rule of thumb.
Private member:
class Node:
def __init__(self):
self.__childs = []
def add_childs(self, *args):
self.__childs += args
node = Node()
node.add_childs("one", "two")
Public member:
class Node2:
def __init__(self):
self.childs = []
node2 = Node2()
node2.childs += "one", "two"
I have a string of HTML stored in a database. Unfortunately it contains characters such as ®
I want to replace these characters by their HTML equivalent, either in the DB itself or using a Find Replace in my Python / Django code.
Any suggestions on how I can do this?
given a list of python strings, how can I automatically convert them to their correct type? Meaning, if I have:
["hello", "3", "3.64", "-1"]
I'd like this to be converted to the list
["hello", 3, 3.64, -1]
where the first element is a stirng, the second an int, the third a float and the fourth an int.
how can I do this? thanks.
how to traverse a binary decision tree using python language.
given a tree,i want know how can we travesre from root to required leaf
the feature of the required leaf are given in an dictionary form assume and have to traverse from root to leaf answering the questions at each node with the details given in feature list..
the decision tree node has format ((question)(left tree)(right tree))
while traversing it should answer question at each node and an choose left or right and traverse till leaf?
Contents of check.py:
from multiprocessing import Process
import time
import sys
def slp():
time.sleep(30)
f=open("yeah.txt","w")
f.close()
if __name__=="__main__" :
x=Process(target=slp)
x.start()
sys.exit()
In windows 7, from cmd, if I call python check.py, it doesn't immediately exit, but instead waits for 30 seconds. And if I kill cmd, the child dies too- no "yeah.txt" is created.
How do I make ensure the child continues to run even if parent is killed and also that the parent doesn't wait for child process to end?
Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to automatically run commands on entering the python shell as you would with the .bash_profile or .profile scripts with bash. I would like to automatically import some modules so I don't have to type the whole shebang everytime I hop into the shell.
Thanks,
I want to know how to run a progress bar and some other work simultaneously, then when the work is done, stop the progress bar in Python (2.7.x)
import sys, time
def progress_bar():
while True:
for c in ['-','\\','|','/']:
sys.stdout.write('\r' + "Working " + c)
sys.stdout.flush()
time.sleep(0.2)
def work():
*doing hard work*
How would I be able to do something like:
progress_bar() #run in background?
work()
*stop progress bar*
print "\nThe work is done!"
