...ranges are indicated by -1, not None. (The documentation said None, but the PRE implementation used -1; changing to None would break existing code.) The winreg module has been renamed to _winreg. (There are plans for a higher-level API called winreg, but this has not yet materialized in a form that is acceptable to the experts.) The _locale module is enabled by default. Fixed the configuration line for the _curses module. A few crashes have been fixed, notably <file>.writ...
...range of possible actions would be. N. Norwitz said he would ask the lawyer. 10.2 Open Source Foundations Meeting at EuroOSCON D. Ascher mentioned that he has been involved in a group of open source & related foundations who had a meeting before OSCON. There's another meeting coming up at EuroOSCON, in Amsterdam, October 21 & 22. He asked if any of the board members would attend on behalf of the PSF. M. von Löwis said he would check his availability. 10.3 &nbs...
...range() for ranges with a length >= 2**53. Formerly, randrange would return only even numbers for ranges that large (see SF bug #812202). Generators that do not define genrandbits() now issue a warning when randrange() is called with a range that large. 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 n...

...range of input than previously, which exposed several deficiencies needing correction. Fixed those and released the PyTexas sponsor payment collection webpages to production, integrated into the PyTexas wiki. Next task: HAM signup webpages. My focus is on PSF Sponsor invoicing, Federal taxes, the Associate Member program, AR and AP reduction. It was necessary to accomplish the CiviContribute milestone first, because signing up Associate mem...

...range, much due to low hotel reservations. Room reservations are under our obligation by about 700 room-nights at last count, at a cost of approximately $100 per room-night. The Board discussed an appeal for help (a push for more attendance, or donations), but decided not to prematurely spread news of a potential financial loss (which may be perceived as an announcement of failure), but wait until after the conference. S. Holden: "I believe the correct approach is to see how the whole thi...
...range widely in size and scope. An organizer posts a date for an event, and people indicate their interest in attending. For each group the Meetup.com site keeps a calendar of past meetings, with attendance, if the organizer approves it afterward. Meetup evens can be useful, but attendance and frequency is not closely monitored by Meetup. D. Goodger asked about obtaining an umbrella group discount. J. Rush: "I'm still talking with meetup.com; they don't make it easy to sponsor groups of...
...range of computer science concepts - including logic circuits and AI. Pynguin is a unified editor, interactive console, and graphics display area written using Python and the PyQt toolkit. Pynguin is meant to be an easy environment for introducing programming concepts to beginning programmers. Pygnuin programs generate digital images that can be saved as SVG or PNG files. Crunchy is a Python program that can transform an otherwise static html tutorial into an interactive Python session within ...
...range(5) to assign 0 to a and [1, 2, 3, 4] to b. range() now returns an iterator rather than a list. Floats are not allowed. xrange() is no longer defined. Patch #1660500: hide iteration variable in list comps, add set comps and use common code to handle compilation of iterative expressions. By default, != returns the opposite of ==, unless the latter returns NotImplemented. Patch #1680961: sys.exitfunc has been removed and replaced with a private C-level API. PEP 3115: new metaclasses: t...

Computer Programming for Everybody Computer Programming for Everybody This is the main text of a funding proposal that we sent to DARPA in January 1999. In August 1999, we submitted a revised version of the proposal. Please look at the EDU-SIG home page (Python in Education Special Interest Group). This is where the current project status is described and/or will be discussed, and where you'll find pointers to more resources. Note:I have made one change to the text of the propos...
...range of students, from non-computer science major undergraduates, down to secondary school and eventually lower- and middle-school students. The approach for each of these grade levels may differ so as to better relate to and reach students as they mature, but CP4E strives to provide a unified approach which will grow as the student grows, presenting richer and more in-depth topic material along the way. The initial effort will focus mainly on high school and undergraduate students. CNRI...
