  • Comparing Option-Parsing Libraries

    ...iterator11273 argtools10869 Notes: as reported by Dinu Gherman's pycount -- ie. this is lines of real code, not counting blanks, comments, or docstrings (but counting literal strings, such as help and usage text) ie. with all explicit help text removed. For ArgParser and argtools, this is just a big literal string, since these libraries don't do automatic help generation. For Optik, this just means removing the help parameter ...

  • Highlights: Python 2.4

    ...itertools has a new function groupby() that acts a little like an SQL "GROUP BY" statement. It also gained a function tee() that returns N independent iterators that replicate the iterator passed as an argument. A new function basicConfig() was added to the logging package to simplify setup for logging. There is also a new TimedRotatingLogFileHandler which automatically rotates log files at a fixed interval. The operator module gained functions attrgetter() and itemgetter() The posix m...

    ...iterable collections), but has the advantage of making iterindexed(x, i, j) iterate over x[i:j] while reporting the index sequence range(i, j) -- not so easy otherwise. The simplified version is still attractive because it allows arbitrary iterators to be passed in: def iterindexed(collection): i = 0 it = iter(collection) while 1: yield (i, it.next()) i += 1 Generator comprehensions I don't think it's worth the tro...

  • Python 2.2

    ...Iterators (PEP 234) and generators (PEP 255) were added. The second PEP adds a new reserved word, "yield", which must be enabled by adding "from __future__ import generators" to the top of every module that uses it. Without that, "yield" is treated as an identifier but a warning is issued. The floor division operator // has been added as outlined in PEP 238. The / operator still provides classic division (and will until Python 3.0) unless "from __future__ import division" is inclu...

Also a new dict method was added, pop(key), which removes and returns the value corresponding to the given key. filter() - now returns Unicode when the input is Unicode. Various bugs with subclasses of built-in types fixed. (New in 2.3a2.) int() - this can now return a long when converting a string with many digits, rather than raising OverflowError.

  • SIG for development of Python/C++ integration

    ...Iterator Support Goal: Python 2.2 provides an iteration interface which should allow C++ sequences to be easily exposed to Python in a natural way. Automatic C++ Object Initialization While Python allows classes to be created without initialization, C++ does not. Boost.Python currently allows C++ base classes of Python extension classes to remain uninitialized. That behavior is not always appropriate. Goal: Optional support for the automatic default constru...

    ...itertools has a new function, groupby() for aggregating iterables into groups sharing the same key (as determined by a key function). It offers some of functionality of SQL's groupby keyword and of the Unix uniq filter. itertools now has a new tee() function which produces two independent iterators from a single iterable. itertools.izip() with no arguments now returns an empty iterator instead of raising a TypeError exception.

  • Python 2.4.1 - Release Notes

    ...Iterators were added; this is a generalized way of providing values to a for loop. See PEP 234. There's a new built-in function iter() to return an iterator. There's a new protocol to get the next value from an iterator using the next() method (in Python) or the tp_iternext slot (in C). There's a new protocol to get iterators using the __iter__() method (in Python) or the tp_iter slot (in C). Iterating (i.e. a for loop) over a dictionary generates its keys. Iterating over a file generates it...
