Hi guys,
I kindly ask you to stop this topic. Though I see the importance to have a
good editor for programming, this is outside of the focus of a Python
mailing list.
The open source world offers a lot of very good tools to edit source files,
even for cross-platform development. Emacs is one of

Hi,
I was wondering if there are any tricks around to
do some sort of changing types, float in particular.
I do many operations like summing etc on lots
of floats and always have to do some extra checks where
results are heading 0.0, like round(n,10) for example.
My idea was to tell python in some

Dear Pythonistas
My company, Silverkey, is going to hold a demo day on 07/07/2007. We are going
to make a comparison between static languages and dynamic languages. I'm going
to represent the dynamic languages side.
