who sell executable versions of their programs for profit?
Yes. What's your point?
That someone must know how to distribute them without having the source
code ripped

No, that's what `is` is for.
Actually, yes, equality is implemented with a short-cut that checks for
identity first. That makes something like:

I don't get your point. Even when I *know* that a certain exception may

which I can think of a suitable response that is *different* from just
letting the program fail.

Python itself *is* open source software. It doesn't *require* you to
write open source software.
So I should stick to C, where one can distribute programs

Oh my, the sheer ignorance that sentence reveals.
Python and the standard library *is* licensed.

Hi guys
In the development of my ADC project i have a new new challenge.
First i need to implement a 10 Bit pipelineADC that will be the
basis to later implement any kind of pipeline arquitecture (i mean,
with 10 Bit, 16 Bit or any other configuration i want) i wish to...
What's a 10 Bit
There is a blog post from Jimmy Schementi who previously worked at
Microsoft on IronRuby about the state of dynamic language work there.

I'm running into some performance / memory bottlenecks on large lists.
Is there any easy way to minimize/optimize memory usage?
Simple str() and unicode objects() [Python 2.6.4/Linux/x86]:
sys.getsizeof('') 24 bytes
sys.getsizeof('0')25 bytes
sys.getsizeof(u'')28 bytes

Yes, lots of ways. For example, do you *need* large lists? Often a better
design is to use generators and iterators

Instead of using 'is' use '=='. Maybe not as cute, but definitely more

It's also just as efficient if you use strings that
resemble identifiers, because they will be interned,
so the comparison will end up just doing an indentity
test anyway.

That's true, although I can't think of a use case for an object

Steven, thank you for answering. See my comments inline. Perhaps I
should have formulated my question a bit differently: Are there any
