Which technology is better to use in terms of performance for high performance scalable web application? PHP or Python?
The project is going to involve database.
I am trying to get python to make noise when certain things happen. Preferably, i would like to play music of some kind, however some kind of distinctive beeping would be sufficient, like an electronic timer going off. I have thus far only been able to make the system speaker chime using pywin32's Beep, however this simply does not have the volume for my application.
Any ideas on how I can do this?

What is the pythonic way to test if there is a tuple starting with another tuple in collection? actually, I am really after the index of match, but I can probably figure out from test example
for example:
c = ((0,1),(2,3))
# (0,) should match first element, (3,)should match no element
I should add my python is 2.4 and/or 2.5
thanks
How can I split a line in Python at a non-printing ascii character (such as the long minus sign hex 0x97 , Octal 227)?
I won't need the character itself. The information after it will be saved as a variable.
Python is filled with little neat shortcuts.
For example:
self.data = map(lambda x: list(x), data)
and (although not so pretty)
tuple(t[0] for t in self.result if t[0] != 'mysql' and t[0] != 'information_schema')
among countless others.
In the irc channel, they said "too many to know them all".
I think we should list some here, as i love using these shortcuts to shorten & refctor my code. I'm sure this would benefit many.
I want to run a cmd exe using a python script.
I have the following code:
def run_command(command):
p = subprocess.Popen(command, shell=True,
stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
return p.communicate()
then i use:
run_command(r"C:\Users\user\Desktop\application\uploader.exe")
this returns the option menu where i need to specify additional parameter for the cmd exe to run. So i pass additional parameters for the cmd exe to run.
How do i accomplish this. I've looked at subprocess.communicate but i was unable to understand it
I'm new in python and I'm having some issues doing a simple thing.
I've an array (or list as it's said in pyton) like this:
list = [ 'NICE dog' , 'blue FLOWER' , 'GOOD cat' , 'YELLOW caw']
As you see each element of this array contains some words. These words is both lowercase and uppercase.
How I can delete from this array each lowercase words?
For example I'd like to have as result this list:
list = [ 'NICE' , 'FLOWER' , 'GOOD' , 'YELLOW']
I'm running a python program. When it get's to these lines:
f = open("/dev/bus/usb/007/005", "r")
x = fcntl.ioctl(f.fileno(), 0x84005001, '\x00' * 256)
It fails saying:
IOError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted
What could be causing this problem?
class A:
def __init__(self):
print "world"
class B(A):
def __init__(self):
print "hello"
B()
hello
In all other languages I've worked with the super constructor is invoked implicitly. How does one invoke it in Python? I would expect super(self) but this doesn't work

I want to break a Python string into its characters.
sequenceOfAlphabets = list( string.uppercase )
works.
However, why does not
sequenceOfAlphabets = re.split( '.', string.uppercase )
work?
All I get are empty, albeit expected count of elements
Hi,
How can i print only certain words from a string in python ?
lets say i want to print only the 3rd word (which is a number) and the 10th one
while the text length may be different each time
mystring = "You have 15 new messages and the size is 32000"
thanks.
I need to be able to block the urls that are stored in a text file on the hard disk using Python. If the url the user tries to visit is in the file, it redirects them to another page instead. How is this done?
Good day chaps.
I'm interested in learning how to invert (make a negative of) an image using the python image libary module.
I cannot however, use the ImageOps function 'invert.' I need another solution, using the RGB values. I've searched and tried to no avail. Thanks for any help :)

I am looking to setup a automated screen scraper that will run on Google app engine using python. I want it to scrape the site and put the specified results into a Entity in app engine. I am looking for some directions on what to use. I have seen beautifulsoup but wonder if people could recommend anything else that could run on Google App engine.
I'm writing a shell for a project of mine, which by design parses commands that looks like this:
COMMAND_NAME ARG1="Long Value" ARG2=123 [email protected]
My problem is that Python's command line parsing libraries (getopt and optparse) forces me to use '-' or '--' in front of the arguments. This behavior doesn't match my requirements.
Any ideas how can this be solved? Any existing library for this?
I just installed python2.6 on my mac, mainly because I couldn't find freeze in my 2.5 distribution. I am wondering where freeze is. Is it even installed at all in the mac distribution?
Hi there,
I feel like this is quite delicate,
I have various folders whith projects I would like to backup into a zip/tar file, but would like to avoid backing up files such as pyc files and temporary files.
I also have a Postgres db I need to backup.
Any tips for running this operation as a python script?
Also, would there be anyway to stop the process from hogging resources in the process?
Help would be very much appreciated.
Using python and wsgiref.handlers, I can get a single variable from a form with self.handler.request.get(var_name), but how do I iterate through all form variables, be they from GET and POST? Is it something like this?
for field in self.handler.request.fields:
value = self.handler.request.get(field)
Again, it should include both fields included in the POST and fields from the query string, as in a GET request.
Thanks in advance folks...
