When you import a module, or a function from a module, a module object
is created and stored in sys.modules. Any subsequent 'import '
calls will return a reference to that module object, and won't reload
from file at all.
You can easily verify this by creating a test module 'foo' with a single
line of `print('loading foo')` and then trying this from the console:
In [1]: import foo
loading foo
In [2]: del foo
In [3]: import foo
In [4]:
Note that you only see 'loading foo' the first time you import the
module. In order to have the module loaded again rather than returning
the existing reference, you would use `reload(foo)`:
In [5]: reload(foo)
loading foo
So: in order to be able to use functions from a re-loaded module, you
should always refer to them via the module object, and not import them
directly:
>>> import xxx
>>> xxx.yy() # original code
# ...modify function `yy` in your source file
>>> reload(xxx)
>>> xxx.yy() # new code
Or: you can reload the module and then rebind the functions:
>>> from xxx import yy
>>> yy() # original code
# ...modify function `yy` in your source file
>>> reload(xxx)
>>> from xxx import yy
>>> yy() # new code
Hope this helps.

You should never change the system Python, since that runs the risk of breaking system tools that expect a particular version. If there are any system tools that run "python", they may break. Instead, set a personal alias. For example, in my ~/.bashrc file, I have the following: export PYTHONPATH="/home/steve/python/:/home/steve/python/utilities" export PYTHONSTARTUP=/home/steve/python/utilities/startup.py alias python=python2.7 alias python3=python3.3 alias python1.5='env -u PYTHONSTARTUP python1.5' alias python2.0='env -u PYTHONSTARTUP python2.0' alias python2.1='env -u PYTHONSTARTUP python2.1' alias python2.2='env -u PYTHONSTARTUP python2.2' alias python2.3='env -u PYTHONSTARTUP python2.3' alias python3.4="env -u PYTHONPATH ~/python/cpython/python" So, for me, and me alone, typing "python" refers to Python 2.7 instead of the system Python, which happens to be 2.4 on my server and 2.6 on my laptop. "python1.5" etc unsets the startup file environment variable, since my startup file assumes 2.4 or better. "python3.4" points to a local copy in my home directory.

Steven is correct that if for example you want the value of sin(10), that in a typical implementation this will be reduced to calculating -sin(10 - 3π). This for two reasons. It is faster to first reduce the argument within the first kwadrant, do the series expansion and then correct for sign than to expand the series with the original argument and it is more acurate because first reducing asures that all terms will stay relatively small while using the original arguments can intrduce some large terms that will have to cancel each other but that will reduce acuracy. -- Antoon Pardon -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I do realize that syntax in python is practically written in stone, but I
have seen changes come by if they have good reasons. For example,
keyword-only argument syntax was added.
I suggested this because I thought it would be the most practical way to
create partial functions. Lambda is too verbose and kind of ugly, and its
purpose is not to create partials, functools.partial does not allow
argument "insertion" (the star thing) nor unpacking.
Maybe I saw this as common usage but it is really a special case. I see
myself needing this kind of advanced partials _very_ often.

Replace blanks with letter

I think that if you're doing argument insertion, then your partial
application is overly complex in the way that it modifies the original
argspec. You should be looking at it as a new function, not as a
partial application that prevents you from easily supplying a doc
string for it. If you want to specify an arbitrary combination of
arguments in your partial application, you can already do that using
keyword arguments. The exception would be if the function being
partially applied takes a *args argument and you want to specify some
of those arguments using partial without specifying earlier arguments.
That seems like an abuse of partial application to me.
Tuple unpacking in function signatures was a feature in Python 2, and
it was intentionally removed in Python 3, so this is very unlikely to
happen. See PEP 3113. Besides which, the syntax you suggest for this
is unintuitive.
spam_unpacking = spam{1, (*, *)}
To me, this reads that spam_unpacking will take two positional
arguments that will be packed into the second argument sent to spam
(b), and that the third argument to spam (c) is not specified here. I
don't think that's what you intended.

First, don't use range(len(iterable)). It's bad practise, and you will have
to use iterable[i] all the time. Try
for i, letter in enumerate(letters):
If you are modifying a string in-place, you could change it into a list,
then back.
blankslst = list(blanks)
...
blankslst[i] = letters[i] # or 'letter' if you used enumerate()
...
blanks = ''.join(blankslst)
Now, why are you not printing the `blanks` string again?

`blanks` has two chars per letter in `letters`. If you change the initial
value to
blanks = "_" * len(letters)
your code should work. If you think the output looks better with spaces you
have to adjust the indices -- or you add spaces for printing only with
print(" ".join(blanks))

No, that syntax was meant to take a tuple and break it into two arguments.
It does read terribly.

In Python 3 the reload built-in was moved to the imp module.
So use imp.reload() instead.

How to keep cookies when making http requests (Python 2.7)
Hi everybody,
I am trying to write a simple Python script to solve the "riddle" at:

The quiz is quite easy to solve, one needs to evaluate the expression between
the curly brackets (say that the expression has value )
and go to the web page:

You have to be fast enough, because with the page there is an associated cookie
that expires 1 sec after the first request, therefore you need to be quick to
access the /job/ page.

small script in JavaScript and could access the page with the email address]

First I have tried with the following code:
#START SCRIPT
import re
import urllib2
regex = re.compile(r'\{(.*)\}')
base_address = "http://quiz.gambitresearch.com/";
base_h = urllib2.urlopen(base_address)
base_page = base_h.read()
val = str(eval(regex.findall(base_page)[0]))
job_address = base_address + "job/" + val
job_h = urllib2.urlopen(job_address)
job_page = job_h.read()
print job_page
#END SCRIPT
job_page has the following content now: "WRONG! (Have you enabled cookies?)"
Trying to solve the issues with the cookies I found the "requests" module that
in theory should work.
I therefore rewrote the above script to use request:
#START SCRIPT:
import re
import requests
regex = re.compile(r'\{(.*)\}')
base_address = "http://quiz.gambitresearch.com/";
s = requests.Session()
base_h = s.get('http://quiz.gambitresearch.com/')
base_page = base_h.text
val = eval( regex.findall( base_page )[0] )
job_address = base_address + "job/" + str(val)
job_h = s.get( job_address )
job_page = job_h.text
print job_page
#END SCRIPT
# print job_page produces "Wrong!".
According to the manual using Session() the cookies should be enabled and
persistent for all the session. In fact the cookies in base_h.cookies and in
job_h.cookies seem to be the same:
base_h.cookies == job_h.cookies
#returns True
So, why does this script fail to access the job page?
How can I change it so that I it works as intended and job_page prints
the content of the page that displays the email address to use for the job
applications?
Thanks a lot in advance for the help!
Best Wishes,
Luca

Re: Found a grammar error in PEP 5. How to suggest correction?
@ Terry Jan Reedy, @Joel Goldstick The problem with that documentation link is that it says the bugs in that documentation should be mailed at that e-mail address. But the PEPs are not the part of the documentation. I am saying that PEPs are not its part because when I downloaded the documentation it did not contain the PEPs. So the information in the documentation is misleading because it doesn't include the PEPs in the downloaded version but the e-mail address is used to accept PEP bugs according to you people. peps at python dot org is the e-mail suggested in PEP1 for contacting the PEP editors. I e-mailed there and got a reply. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
PEPs should be included with the documentation download
Currently the documentation download includes a lot of things but PEPs are not its part. I wanted to suggest that PEPs should be included in the download. They are very much relevant to Python. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: How to keep cookies when making http requests (Python 2.7)
Luca Cerone writes:

Python has a module for cookie handling: "cookielib" ("cookiejar"
in Python 3).
"urllib2" has a standard way to integrate with this module.
However, I do not know the details (check the documentation
for the modules).
I have used "cookielib" externally to "urllib2". It looks
like this:
from urllib2 import urlopen, Request
from cookielib import CookieJar
cookies = CookieJar()
r = Request(...)
cookies.add_cookie_header(r) # set the cookies
R = urlopen(r, ...) # make the request
cookies.extract_cookies(R, r) # remember the new cookies

Basic Python Query
Hi all, Please see the below code. class Test(threading.Thread): def StartThread(self): Lock = threading.Lock() self.start() class Test1(threading.Thread): def __init__(self): threading.Thread.__init__ ( self ) self.Lock = threading.Lock() self.start() if __name__ == '__main__': instance = Test() instance.StartThread() instance1= Test1() instance1.start() Please clarify the questions below with respect to above code 1.Difference between def StartThread(self) and def __init__(self): 2 instance = Test() ,when this is called ,the code flow goes inside the threading module ,But instance1= Test1() ,the code flow goes inside the class Test1 When we call the both classes in same way ,How does the flow is different for both. 3. Lets say self is passed explicitly for all the methods Like def method1(self) method2() def method2(self): method3() def method(self) method4() def method4(self) What does self holds in method4 ,Is it self argument from method1? Sorry i'm confused with self argument.Please clarify if its valid question. Best Regards, Chandan-- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
