I can't import some python libraries (PIL, psycopg2) that I just installed with MacPorts. I looked through these forums, and tried to adjust my PATH variable in $HOME/.bash_profile in order to fix this but it did not work.
I added the location of PIL and psycopg2 to PATH.
I know that Terminal is…

I want to pass a chunk of Python code to Python in R with something like system('python ...'), and I'm wondering if there is an easy way to emulate the python console in this case. For example, suppose the code is "print 'hello world'", how can I get the output like this in R?

Hi,
I am currently struggling to call a non python program from a python script.
I have a ~1000 files that when passed through this C++ program will generate ~1000 outputs. Each output file must have a distinct name.
The command I wish to run is of the form:
program_name -input -output -o1 -o2…

Just finished reading this blog post: http://www.skorks.com/2010/03/an-interview-question-that-prints-out-its-own-source-code-in-ruby/
In it, the author argues the case for using a quine as an interview question. I'm not sure I agree but thats not what this question is about.
He goes on to construct…

Write a program that outputs the reverse of its source code as a string. If the source is
abcd
efg
(i.e., the C string "abcd\nefg")
Then the output should be
gfe
dcba
(i.e., the C string "gfe\ndcba")
Bonus points for using esoteric languages such as brainf*ck.
*EDIT:** Removed the unnecessary…

I have created a turing-complete programming language (already proven) so it must be possible to write a quine for it, right?
But all quines I know store their source code in a string and then replace a special character in it using something like chr and ord.
My language only has the following
Basic…

I just wanted to know if it is 100% possible, if my language is turing-complete, to write a program in it that prints itself out (of course not using a file reading function)
So if the language just has the really necessary things in order to make it turing complete (I would prove that by translating…
