More likely someone just posted a piece of spam with a forged From address.

At that point, the target list will get an email from an address it doesn't recognize, and what you see above happens - non-members aren't allowed to post to most lists (without a mod's approval; I run a list for a local society's committee, and it's normal for people to send something to the committee who aren't members of it, so those posts go to the moderation queue), and the post gets bounced.

Why do you consider this a problem? It's a problem if you try to use tabs for lining things up in a tabular fashion in your source code. The solution is not to use tabs for that -- only use tabs for indentation, and use spaces for everything else. Or, as PEP 8 suggests, don't try to line things up in the first place. PEP8 suggests using this style of method invocation: obj.method(foo, bar, baz) which is an effect impossible to do correctly with tabs alone. If you want to follow this style strictly, you end up having to either mix tabs and spaces, or just use spaces, or as I prefer it, avoid the issue altogether: obj.method( foo, bar, baz, ) Ok, here's irony. I'm looking at that thinking what the heck is he talking about?!?. And then my brain catches up. My mail reader is of course modern and does not use a mono space font.

Since I personally don't know why flashlights are called that name, it clearly MUST BE that there is no reason for that name!!! (By the way, outside of the USA, flashlights in the rest of the English- speaking world are usually called torches, so called because, like the old-fashioned burning torch, they provide light.) thereby creating a inverse esoteric of ubiquitous illogic, in this case, the term: flash-light. A few minutes googling would have given you the answer: flashlights are called flashlights because originally you could only flash them on and off. Due to the high power requirements and the low battery capacities at the time, leaving the torch switched on would burn out the filament, exhaust the battery, or both. The Oxford Dictionary also points out that flashlight is a term used for signalling and warning lights, such as in lighthouses. It doesn't say whether the signalling use inspired, or was inspired by, the hand-held flashlight. I expect that, since electric lighthouses are more than two decades older than flashlights, that usage came first. Both the flashlight and the flash bulb were first patented in 1899, and it is possible that the name of one was influenced by the name of the other. Flash bulbs used an electrically-ignited filament of magnesium to provide a single, extremely bright, flash of light. They replaced the older system of a small trough of flash powder (a mixture of magnesium and potassium chlorate) ignited in the air. So far from being an illogical term, the name flashlight actually gives you a glimpse into the historical background of the invention. Of course everyone knows that a flash light does not flash, Everybody is wrong. I have torches (flashlights) with a flash function, where they flash on and off. I've also owned torches where they had a switch to turn them on and give a steady, hands-free light, and a second button that only generated light while it was held down. so why do we continue to propagate such foolish terms? Not a foolish term, merely a sign that technology marches on. Well, for the same reason language designers keep giving us illogical terms like function and class, but i digress.

[issue21922] PyLong: use GMP
New submission from Hristo Venev: I have implemented the PyLong interface using the GMP mpn functions. API/ABI compatibility is retained (except for longintrepr). It can be enabled by passing --enable-big-digits=gmp to ./configure. No large performance regressions have been observed for small numbers (a few operations are about 10% slower). For large numbers some operations are a lot faster. There is also int.__gcd__ which may be used by fractions.gcd. The GIL is sometimes released. Minimum number of digis for releasing GIL: - multiplication - 64 - division - 64, - modular exponentiation - 16, - base conversion - 64 (256 for binary bases) - GCD - 16 The tests for long, float, decimal, fractions, string, unicode, bytes, pickle, marshal and enum pass. The tests for int fail because the error messages are a bit different (when creating int from bytes or bytearray the value is not shown). I may have run other tests and they have not failed. I have not tested on anything but x86-64. The following testcases yield 42x performace improvement: - 16384-bit RSA on 8 threads on quad-core with HT # GIL released - Multiplying 560-bit ints - Dividing 600-bit ints - Converting 30-character str to int(base=10) - Converting 125-bit int to str -- components: Interpreter Core messages: 222347 nosy: h.venev priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: PyLong: use GMP type: performance versions: Python 3.5 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21922 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

IME I rarely catch IndexErrors, and I usually use LBYL before accessing a random index. Slowing down the instantiation to add an index that no one really needs would be a waste. This exception has been around for 20+ years -- if they were an actual need, we would have known by now. I'm not sure the cost of adding the index is comparable with the cost of the whole instantiation. Regarding the request itself see #1534607 and #18162. @Ram Another possibility is to make the -O flag do this switch, though there are problems with that too. -1 Unfortunately I don't program in C, so I can't implement this. It might be easier than you think. You just need to find where the exception is defined and see what other exceptions like KeyError do. Then you copy the code and adjust it until it doesn't segfault anymore and the tests pass. -- nosy: +ezio.melotti resolution: - duplicate stage: - resolved status: open - closed superseder: - Add index attribute to IndexError ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21911 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21911] IndexError: tuple index out of range should include the requested index and tuple length
Stefan Behnel added the comment:
you'd be surprised how much cheaper indexing a sequence is relative to
dictionary access
This is a bit off-topic (and I realise that this ticket is closed now), but the
difference isn't really all that large:
$ python3.4 -m timeit -s 'seq = list(range(1000)); d = {n:n for n in seq}'
'seq[100]'
1000 loops, best of 3: 0.0263 usec per loop
$ python3.4 -m timeit -s 'seq = list(range(1000)); d = {n:n for n in seq}'
'd[100]'
1000 loops, best of 3: 0.0285 usec per Pool
$ python3.4 -m timeit -s 'seq = list(range(1000)); d = {test%d%n:n for n in
seq}' 'd[test34]'
1000 loops, best of 3: 0.0317 usec per loop
Especially hashing strings is usually faster than you might expect, because the
hash value is cached and strings that get hashed once tend to get hashed again
later.
Note that KeyError doesn't do any exception message formatting on creation. It
only includes the bare key, which is pretty quick, especially if the key is
already a string.
In comparison, instantiating an exception takes almost three times as long:
$ python3 -m timeit -s 'K=KeyError' 'K(test)'
1000 loops, best of 3: 0.0779 usec per loop
We once had the case in Cython where dropping the instantiation of
StopIteration at the end of generator execution gave a serious performance
boost (more than 40% faster for short running generator expressions in the
nqueens benchmark), but the same is less likely to apply to IndexError, which
normally indicates a bug and not control flow. I lean towards agreeing with
Terry that usability beats performance here.

[issue21880] IDLE: Ability to run 3rd party code checkers
Saimadhav Heblikar added the comment: In v3, there is no subprocess usage. It imports the checker specific module,does its job and returns the result of processing. The checker specific files are to be installed from TestPyPI(atleast for now). It has to be installed via pip. It will be detected automatically in IDLE. There will be a feature to pass additional arguments onto the checker(though not yet implemented in this patch). This patch also supports the feature to modify the editor buffer. To test out this patch, kindly install two packages pip install -i https://testpypi.python.org/pypi IDLEPyflakes IDLEWhitespaceRemover (I used the reindent.py file in Tools/scripts in IDLEWhitespaceRemover) Again, this is more a proof of concept patch. I we are to go ahead in this direction, I will be writing it from scratch again and also with tests.

Antoine Pitrou added the comment: Josh, your analysis is right, I had forgotten that we had improved this point in 3.x (interruptibility of lock.acquire()). It is *extremely* unlikely to be backported to 2.7, though, since it is really an enhancement. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21913 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21924] Cannot import anything that imports tokenize from script called token.py
Ned Deily added the comment: That's because there is also a standard library module named token (https://docs.python.org/3/library/token.html). When you run python, by default the current working directory is inserted at the beginning of sys.path, the list of directories searched for modules. If you have a file there that has the same name as a standard library module, e.g. token.py, it will be found first and, thus, hide the standard library module of the same name. Either change the name of your file so it does not conflict or make sure it is in a directory not on sys.path. -- nosy: +ned.deily resolution: - not a bug stage: - resolved status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21924 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
