    Python Success Stories Introduction This story is about applying Python in the automated CD/DVD disc packaging industry. In the wholesale market, CD/DVD discs are sold in units of 10, 20 or 50 in one shrink-wrapped bulk package. Counting out stacks of discs for these packages is labor-intensive and requires several steps to accomplish: picking up an estimated number of discs from a large stack, verifying the correctness of the number of discs using a disc counter, adding or removing discs t...

  • Python Patterns - An Optimization Anecdote

    ...*(N-1)/2, or 0.5*N**2 - 0.5*N. In addition to this, there are N string allocation operations, but for sufficiently large N, the term containing N**2 will take over. Indeed, for a list that's 8 times as long (2048 items), these functions all take much more than 8 times as long; close to 16 times as long, in fact. I didn't dare try a list of 64 times as long. There's a general technique to avoid quadratic behavior in algorithms like this. I coded it as follows for strings of exactly ...

This was quite easy to implement in Python, and we would be hard pressed to find a language that makes it any easier. Python's mathematical expressions are almost identical to the standard form used in the sciences, so we could use Python's "eval" statement to parse and evaluate the user-defined expressions. Because our Property manager ...
