    ...complexity merits their taking our money, and suggest we just have gandi.com auto-renew all our domains." This discussion was deferred to email. 12   PyCon 2010 Budget S. Holden: "How's the budget looking? V. Lindberg: "It is mostly in order. I'm working through the sub-tabs so that the final results will be reflected on the front sheet." S. Holden: "ETA?" V. Lindberg: "Accurate budget projections are now in for Fixed Costs, A/V, Reco...

    ...complex issue came up with the book Maya Python for Games and Film: A Complete Reference for Maya Python and the Maya Python API using an dilutive derived logo. Apparently this use came from an innocent confusion between author Adam Mechtley <adam.mechtley@gmail.com> (who contacted us) and his publisher Elsevier/Morgan-Kaufmann, in which they used an informal design suggestion of his without proper vetting. Editor "Lewin, Laura (ELS-BUR)" <L.Lewin@Elsevier.com> co...

  • What's New In Python 3.0

    ...complex pattern involving a __del__ method re-raising an exception. Issue #2534: speed up isinstance() and issubclass() by 50-70%, so as to match Python 2.5 speed despite the __instancecheck__ / __subclasscheck__ mechanism. In the process, fix a bug where isinstance() and issubclass(), when given a tuple of classes as second argument, were looking up __instancecheck__ / __subclasscheck__ on the tuple rather than on each type object. Issue #3663: Py_None was decref'd when printing SyntaxErrors. I...

  • Python 2.4.1 - Release Notes

    ...complex(obj) could leak a little memory if obj wasn't a string or number. zip() with no arguments now returns an empty list instead of raising a TypeError exception. obj.__contains__() now returns True/False instead of 1/0. SF patch 820195. Python no longer tries to be smart about recursive comparisons. When comparing containers with cyclic references to themselves it will now just hit the recursion limit. See SF patch 825639. str and unicode builtin types now have an rsplit() method that is s...

  • Computer Programming for Everybody

    ...complex to allow anyone to scratch their itch without first investing a serious amount of effort and time into understanding the software they're using. We are interested in changes to the whole software development process that will fix this as well-in particular development tools. Why teach a "general" programming language? It is well understood that there is a bit of a dichotomy between "procedural" programming languages on the one hand and "declarative" languages on the other. Fo...

  • Notes

    ...Complex numbers supported divmod() and the // and % operators, but these make no sense. Since this was documented, they're being deprecated now. String and unicode methods lstrip(), rstrip() and strip() now take an optional argument that specifies the characters to strip. For example, "Foo!!!?!?!?".rstrip("?!") -> "Foo". There's a new dictionary constructor (a class method of the dict class), dict.fromkeys(iterable, value=None). It constructs a dictionary wi...
