Help needed with translating perl to python
I have a perl script which connect to network stream using sockets.
The scripts first logins in to the server and then parses the data
comming from the socket.
Statement 1:
my $today = sprintf(%4s%02s%02s, [localtime()]-[5]+1900,
[localtime()]-[4]+1, [localtime()]-[3]) ;
Statement 2:
my $password = md5_hex($today$username) ;
Statement group 3:
$msglen = bcdlen(length($msg)) ;
sub bcdlen {
my $strlen = sprintf(%04s, shift) ;
my $firstval = substr($strlen, 2, 1)*16 + substr($strlen, 3, 1) ;
my $lastval = substr($strlen, 0, 1)*16 + substr($strlen, 1, 1) ;
return chr($firstval) . chr($lastval) ;

Re: Help needed with translating perl to python
I posted too soon:
Statement 1:
my $today = sprintf(%4s%02s%02s, [localtime()]-[5]+1900,
[localtime()]-[4]+1, [localtime()]-[3]) ;
1. is localtime the same as time in python?
2. What does - ? do in perl?
3. What is 'my'
Statement 2:
my $password = md5_hex($today$username) ;
is md5_hex the same as md5.new(key).hexdigest() in python?
$msglen = bcdlen(length($msg)) ;
1. here the funciton is being called with the length of variable msg.
However the function def below does not have any args
sub bcdlen {
my $strlen = sprintf(%04s, shift) ;
my $firstval = substr($strlen, 2, 1)*16 + substr($strlen, 3, 1) ;
my $lastval = substr($strlen, 0, 1)*16 + substr($strlen, 1, 1) ;
return chr($firstval) . chr($lastval) ;
}
2. What does shift do above?
3. is the '.' operator just + in python?
Thanks,
Vineet

Questions on migrating from Numeric/Scipy to Numpy
I've tried to post this to the numpy google group but it seems to be down. My migration seems to be going well. I currently have one issue with using scipy_base.insert. a = zeros(5) mask = zeros(5) mask[1] = 1 c = zeros(1) c[0] = 100 numpy.insert(a, mask, c) array([ 100.,0., 100., 100., 100.,0.,0.,0., 0.,0.]) a array([ 0., 0., 0., 0., 0.]) b array([0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1], dtype=int8) mask array([ 0., 1., 0., 0., 0.]) c array([ 100.]) I would have expected numpy.insert to update a so that the second element in a would be 100.

Re: Questions on migrating from Numeric/Scipy to Numpy
It is just a redirection to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list. If you just tried in the past hour or so, I've discovered that our DNS appears to be down right now. I tried registering the twice the last couple of days and never got an email back. No, that's not what insert() does. See the docstring: Then this behavior is different from the scipy_base.insert In [7]: a[mask] = 100 What I needed was a[mask] = array_of_values I just tried it and it works. Thanks, VJ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Questions on migrating from Numeric/Scipy to Numpy
Note that the mask needs to be a bool array. mask = zeros(5) mask = zeros(5, numpy.int8) mask[1] = True mask[2] = True a = zeros(5) a[mask] = [100, 200] a array([ 100., 100.,0.,0.,0.]) I found this strange. It should just give an error if you try to use a mask array of non booleans. It's working great so far. Thanks for all the hard work. VJ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Has anyone generated Open Office Calc XML files from python
I have a program which generates xml files for excel but these files are not recognized by open office calc. I looked at the OO uno library, but it seems like an over kill.

Re: Has anyone generated Open Office Calc XML files from python
http://ooopy.sourceforge.net/ I downloaded the package. unfortunately there are no examples that come with. I found another python package which is more geared to creating simple calc objects from python at. Apparently it is a port of the perl library. http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=87437 Here is one of the examples from the library. Seems pretty simple and exactly what I was looking for: --- import ooolib # Create your document doc = ooolib.Calc() # Set values. The values are set in column, row order, but the values are # not in the traditional A5 style format. Instead we require two integers. # set_cell_value(col, row, datatype, value) for row in range(1, 9): for col in range(1, 9): doc.set_cell_value(col, row, float, col * row) # Save the document to the file you want to create doc.save(calc-example01.ods) --- VJ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: wing ide vs. komodo?
I've tried both and find WingIDE much faster than Komodo and the layout is very well thought out. I love the way you can collapse all the differnet panes with a few keystrokes. I also like their autocomplete functionality. Wing is developed by a small company, focussed on python development, while komodo supports all the major scripting languages. VJ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: wing ide vs. komodo?
Forgot to mention WING's file search and replace is pretty cool and powerful. It keeps checking changes in a different thread. If you want to change yyy in say 100 files you would: 1. specify yyy in the search window 2. A list of files get displayed with matching yyy 3. As you fix replace yyy in the files the list of files with matching yyy reduces automatically. This is very cool and very useful. Another thing I like about WING is that it warns you if you have tabs ans spaces mixed in a file. The embedded python shell is also a useful feature.

Need help with restricting number of new objects a user script can create
I'm building a large infrastructure with about 30 servers (all running linux). I allow my end users to write scripts which then get broken down in smaller parts and run across the 30 servers. The results from each individual run are combined and presented back to the user. I'm currently using pylint to restrict access to many things and make the code a little more 'safe'. (I understand that it is very difficult, if not impossible, to make the code completely secure). The problem I'm facing now is: how do I restrict the user from (inadvertently or maliciously) creating a large number of objects which will bring down the entire 100 nodes. Some of the things which I have ruled out (due to application architecture): 1. Running each process in its own unix process. Current Options: 1. expose my own version of range and xrange 2. Have a sandbox where the user script is run on random data before being pushed out to the all the servers. Questions: 1. How can I restrict recursion for the user scripts? 2. How can I restrict list comprehension in the user script? How do I disable user from doing [1]*10 4. Can I move the user scripting to some other language which can be interfaced with python yet allow the restricted execution env. 4. Can I convert the user functions using some 'modified' variant of pyrex which will give me more control? Have other people faced similar problems? I would imagine this is a common problem for anyone building distributed systems? Python 3000: Going forward this would be a really useful thing to see in python 3000 where a restricted exec env should be built in to the language from the ground up. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
