Ah, I can be marvelously unclear. I keep forgetting telepathy only works
on my home planet ;')
I wiped everything out to start fresh with Py27, so this is just a very
simple example of what worked in sending a few million test integers to my
numbers-to-name program, which normally took typed input. The real test
program used randoms to go up to the decillions and a straight count to go
into the quadrillions, for about 40 tests (before my CPU overheated, this
being Arizona ;')
No doubt there is a standard way to do this, but I wanted to test the
numbers program quickly, without mooching all over the net, so I threw
something like this together:
# The module I import, inputter.py:
#Using Python 2.7 on Win 7
def inp():
x = raw_input('type a number: ')
return x
def intest():
if int(inp()) < 10:
print('smallnum')
else:
print('bignum')
def main():
intest()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
# The Test Program, test.py that imports the module above:
# Using Python 2.7 on Win 7
import inputter
x = (x for x in xrange(8,13)) # much bigger, and sometimes random, in the
real test program
def testfunc(): # This is where my typed input is replaced
return next(x)
inputter.inp = testfunc
for cnt in range(0,5):
inputter.intest()
'''result:
smallnum
smallnum
bignum
bignum
bignum
'''
