Response codes and \r\n
Heya, I am reading an XML file (code at the end if it helps) and all goes well except I am getting the http response code printed. So everything (hat works of course) has 200 OK on the first line. Am I missing some simple way of surprising this, or should I just delete the 1st line before playing with the content? Also everything I get has \r\n in it, which atm I am getting rid of with strip(), is that the best way? http://pastebin.com/m4120242 Thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Go to start-run and hit cmd enter without the quotes. Something is amiss here. There's the MS Command Prompt, which I'm looking at right now. Yes, it has cd, and so on.

If I write a simple python program with just raw_input, by clicking on the file name, I get a window with the the title \Python25\pythonexe that shows the prompt. If I deliberately put a syntax error in the program, and run it by clicking the file, then A window appears and disappears so quickly that I have no idea what it said. How do I keep that window up? Which, if any, of these is the real Python console? What is the window called in the example I gave with raw_input?

Shirley, you jest? DOS? To do this? How ugly. I barely recall the DOS commands. I get to drill my way down 4 levels of folders. What DOS cmd allows one to list only folders? Still, why would one design a window that disappears, when it has useful data in it? I see that if I click on the window, it has properties, width, height, etc. Thats programming. Whaterver the language, you will need to be comfortable with the CLI of your operating system. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Embarrasing questio

Couple of noobish question
Firstly hi, I don't know any of you yet but am picking up Python and will be lurking here a lot lol. I am a hobbiest coder (did 3 out of 4 years of a comp tech degree, long story) and am learning Python, 'cos I saw some code and it just looks a really nice language to work with. I come from C++, so I am bound to trip up trying to do things the wrong way! I have been working with Project Euler to get the hang of Python, and all goes well. I have an idea for a small project, an overly simplistic interactive fiction engine (well more like those old choose your own adventure books, used to love those!) that uses XML for its map files. The main issues I see so far is the XML parsing (I should pick that up ok, I have a blackbelt in google-foo), but more importantly splitting code files. In C++ I would obviously split .cpp and .h files, pairing them up and using #include. How do I do this in Python? I see that you don't tend to split logic from defenition, but how do I keep different classes in different files? My google-fu fails me so far. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Here's a goofy example: 1) foo.py contains a class called Foo 2) bar.py contains a script that imports Foo: import foo # create an instance of the Foo class myFoo = foo.Foo() I hope that was clear.

Question about inheritence

Thanks for your time. Nothing, unless you call it in your constructor. class Base(object): def __init__(self): print Base constructor called # without calling the base class constructor class C(Base): def __init__(self): print C constructor called # call the base class constructor using super class D(Base): def __init__(self): super(D, self).__init__() print D constructor called c = C() d = D() Matt Aha!
