HelloI wrote a function named vertical to print string .printable characters
and ASCII values in a table.
1)It is swallowing some characters.
2)It output some characters 2 or 3 times.
3)It prints one column more than what I asked for.
It may be a division problem(floating point).
Its sibling called horizontal got no problems.
please examine it and give suggestions and improvements to set it right.
#!usr\\bin\\env python
def horizontal(columns):
import string
n=0
v=string.printable
v=v.replace('\n','')
v=v.replace('\t','')
while n<len(v):
try:
for x in range (n,n+columns,1):
print '%s'%v[x],'=','%3d'%ord(v[x]),' '*3,
print
n+=columns
except IndexError:break
def vertical(columns):
import string
v=string.printable
v=v.replace('\n','')
v=v.replace('\t','')
for x in range((len(v))/columns):
for y in range(x,len(v),x+((len(v))/columns)):
print v[y],'=',ord(v[y]),' '*3,
print
Thanks in advance.
Prasad.
