 | hit the (CODE) button/tags before you post code, also your strategy for the key is awful...I don't understand why you would do:d=len(phbuk);phbuk[d+1]=name How about something more like: `phbuk[a]=abc #"or [b,c] depending on your preference"#` > Now if i want to delete a particular record just by giving name then how …  |

| | Python comes with an IDE called IDLE; I'd suggest reading the beginner threads and also decide which version of python you're going to start with, python 3.2.2 is the most recent version, there are more packages available for python 2.7 but the future is python 3; python 3 is backwards-incompatible … |
| | You were thinking in the right direction, you just weren't actually doing anything: I'll give you heavy help on one of them and the idea should become quite clear for all of them. [CODE]>>> word=input('word: ') word: hello >>> word3='' >>> for letter in word[::-1]: #which could also be "for … |
 | :) well just so ya know there is a random module with things like shuffle.[CODE]import random f=open('names.txt','r') names=f.readlines() f.close() selected_names=set() while len(selected_names)<5: random.shuffle(names) indx=random.randint(0,len(names)-1) selected_names.add(names[indx])[/CODE] a set will get rid of any duplicates. but you could also do a "if key not in list" kind of thing:[CODE]selected_names=[] while len(selected_names)<5: random.shuffle(names) … |
| | Just fooling around I came across an issue updating a digital-clock like label. This: [CODE]self.now=time.strftime('%a. %b %d %Y %H:%M:%S',time.localtime()) self.clock=ttk.Label(self,text=self.now) self.clock.pack() while True: self.now=time.strftime('%a. %b %d %Y %H:%M:%S',time.localtime()) self.clock['text']=self.now[/CODE] simply freezes the program, I've managed to get it to update on certain events like the user hitting a button but … |

| | Instead of 1 or 0 why don't you return True or False...? Also, even though it's a bad habit of mine, it's considered ugly to use globals when not necessary in a function, you could simply return what you need to, try putting all these things in an array or … |
| | use the code tags to display your code |
| | It was easier for me with a function, also if you want to get the correct index value remember that python counts the first as 0, so how do you think you should accommodate for that d3fined? |
| | Re: help needed I'm confused, so you want to create a free web service that does something that people need done, and you DO or DON'T want it to be surveys? Sorry for the confusion.  |
| | I would abstract the date box into a function and use string formatting to insert the words date and whatever date is, maybe I'm misunderstanding the problem, but I'd do something like:[CODE]def make_label(word): try: lab='| %s: |\n+-------------------+' % word return lab except TypeError: lab='' for words in word: slab='| %s: … |
| | wrong type, watch this magic:[CODE]>>> a=input('code: ') code: 3 >>> a==3 False >>> a '3' >>> print(3) 3 >>> type(a) <class 'str'> >>> type(3) <class 'int'> >>> a=int(a) >>> a==3 True[/CODE] input creates a string, if you want it to be an integer you need to be explicit about it. |

| | This doesn't belong in code snippets as it is a question, hopefully a mod will fix that soon. Python comments are preceded by # or are within ''' ''' also your indentation is way off. Also, given this code how do you intend the "ATM" to know the customers password? … |
| | Early this morning, and I haven't a clue how this slipped by me, I learned about the Android SDK and Python for Android, I did a little research, it's very intriguing. Has anybody worked with this at all? Do most built in libraries and modules work for it? How do … |

| | your command for that button is going to cause issues, I've noticed whenever you have command=method_or_function(parameter) it immediately attempts to run that command, I've side stepped this by creating methods that know to grab that parameter.I'm not completely sure about the rest of the issue, I'd need to see more … |

| | come on now, obviously you have to assign the variable to a value...[CODE]>>> s=10 >>> >>> int(s) 10 >>> print(s) 10 >>> s+3 13[/CODE] but that only answers part of it, first you have to assign s to a string value, HINT: this is done by surrounding the value with … |
| | well, from what I'm seeing it looks like it'll come up surrounded by brackets then curly braces.[CODE][{'my','set'}][/CODE] because you made the set a list of the set, and I'm asking myself why you found that necessary... also, work on your names i is not a good name, I looked at … |
| | If you want it to continue, regardless of under what circumstance, you need to create a loop. |
| | Because you've appended a pointer to that list, so when b changes the pointer sees the change. However if you make a COPY it has its own list. Consider the following interactive experiment: [CODE]>>> f=['bob','jack'] >>> d=['bill'] >>> d.append(f) >>> d ['bill', ['bob', 'jack']] >>> f.pop() 'jack' >>> f ['bob'] … |

| | I'm not sure but I'm guessing that something like that would differ for each device, and of course there's the possibility that it may have a domain-specific like language connected to it. I'm intrigued by the idea though. Not to digress but on a semi-related topic I recently came across … |
