given some small and big numbers make desired number without loops | pkeep in mind that you only have to reach the final size therefore it does not matter at all in which order you place the bricksp
pthe next important idea then is to use 5inch bricks whenever possible you cover 5 inches if you use one of those as well as if you use 5 of the 1inch bricks hence using up just one brick is preferablep
pnow youre already done really check the maxmium length you can create with your given 5inch bricks until you either run out of 5inch bricks or you have less than 5inch missing for your target length either way there is some distance missing which you will have to fill up with the remaining 1inch bricksp
pi wont give any code here because its really a very simple problem and from what you have written above you should be easily able to solve it once you understand howp

safe and lazy method invocations in pysidepyqt | pid recommend reading a hrefhttpelithegreenplacenet20110518codesamplesocketclientthreadinpython relnofollowthis posta for a general approach to interface threads with a pyqt gui the post discusses a thread that does socket io but this really is applicable to any thread specifically hardwareinterface threads usually also use io so this may be a good fitp
pthe approach discussed is very generic using codequeuequeuecode and may seem like an overkill for simple tasks but i just want to call that function in a thread however once your application grows nontrivial you will appreciate it because it avoids any thread synchronization problems whatsoever and is very scalable ive personally used it to implement complex pyqt guis with sidethreads doing all kinds of stuffp

greedy versus nongreedy matching in python re | pid recommend using a hrefhttpcodegooglecompyubikeypython relnofollowyubikeypythona for python interfacing to yubikey but thats a side and strictly pragmatical issuep

where is nonlocals | pfrom within running code you can easily get the names of the nonlocal variables but retriving their content in a way a call to codelocalscode gets you a dictionary is a bit trickierp
pthe used codenonlocalcode variable names are stored in the current running code object in the cofreevars attributep
pso getting the nonlocal names is a matter ofp
pcodenames inspectcurrentframefcodecofreevarscodep
pthe emcontentsem for these variables however are stored in the codeclosurecode attribute codefuncclosurecode in python 2 of the emfunction objectem instead not the code object the problem is that without aid from outside there is no easy way for a running code to get to the function object it is running on you can get to the frame object which links to the code object but there are no links back to the function object for a top level defined function one could explicitly use the function known name as used in the codedefcode statement but for an enclosed function that is returned to a caller there is no way of knowing its name eitherp
pso one has to resort to a trick getting all the objects that link to the current code object by using the gc module garbage collector there is a codegcgetreferrerscode call it will return all the function objects that link to the code object one holds p
pso inside a function with nonlocal variables one could dop
precodeimport inspect gc
def ab
b1 2
def c
nonlocal b1
print b
code inspectcurrentframefcode
names codecofreevars
function func for func in gcgetreferrerscode if isinstancefunc functiontype0
nonlocals dict zipnames xcellcontents for x in functionclosure
printnonlocals
return inspectcurrentframe
return c
c a5
f c
codepre
pand therefore retrieve the names and values of the nonlocals strongbutstrong this wont work if you have more than one instance of that function around that is if the function of interested was created more than once with more than one call to the functin that generates it becasue all of those instances will link to the emsameem code object the example above assumes there is only one function running with the current code and would work correctly in this case another call to the factrory function would create another function with potentially other values for the nonlocal variables but with the same code object the codefunction code list genrator above would retrieve all of those and arbitrarily pick the first of thosep
pthe correct function is the one on which the current code is executing i am trying to think of a way of retrieving this information but cant get to it if i can i will complete this answer but for now this cant help you to retrieve the nonlocals values values p
<p>(just found out that trying to use "eval" with a nonlocal variable name won't work as well)</p>
<p>it looks like that the only thing linking the current running frame to the function object where the nonlocal variables values are held is created at run time inside the native side of the python interpreter. i can't think of a way of getting to it short of using the ctypes module to look at interpreters data structures at runtime, which would, of course, be unsuitable for any actual production code.</p>
<p>the bottom line: you can reliably retrieve the nonlocal variable names. but it looks like you can't get their value given their name as a string (nor rebind then).</p>
<p>you could try opening a feature-request for a "nonlocals" call on python's bug tracker or on python-ideas mailing list.</p>

whats the recommended way to unittest python gui applications | pare you sure you want to emunitem test the gui your example of complexity involves more than 1 unit and is therefore an integration testp
pif you really want to unit test you should be able to instantiate a single class providing mocks or stubs for its dependencies then call methods on it like the gui framework would for eg a user click this can be tedious and you have to know exactly how the gui framework dispatches user input to your classesp
pmy advice is to put even more stuff in models for your given example you could create a filtermanager which abstracts all the filterselectdisplay stuff behind a single method then unit test itp

psince you can only iterate once over an iterator codeproductcode cannot be implemented equivalent to thisp
precodedef proda b

for y in b
yield x y
codepre
pif here codebcode is an iterator it will be exhausted after the first iteration of the outer loop and no more elements will be produced in subsequent executions of codefor y in bcodep
pcodeproductcode works around this problem by storing all the elements that are produced by codebcode so that they can be used repeatedlyp
precodedef proda b
b tupleb create tuple with all the elements produced by b
for x in a

pin fact codeproductcode tries to store the elements produced by all the iterables it is given even though that could be avoided for its first parameter the function only needs to walk over the first iterable once so it wouldnt have to cache those values but it tries to do anyway which leads to the codememoryerrorcode you seep

codepre
pstrongi have nave datetimes what can i do strongp
pyou must make an assumption depending on your particular context
the question you must ask yourself is was your codedatetimecode on utc or was it local time p
ul
lipstrongif you were using utcstrong you are out of troublep
precodeimport calendar
def dt2tsdt
converts a datetime object to utc timestamp
naive datetime will be considered utc
return calendartimegmdtutctimetuple
codepre/li>
<li><p><strong>if you were not using utc</strong>, welcome to hell.</p>
<p>you have to make your <code>datetime</code> non-naã¯ve prior to using the former
function, by giving them back their intended timezone.</p>
<p>you'll need <strong>the name of the timezone</strong> and <strong>the information about
if dst was in effect</strong> when producing the target naã¯ve datetime (the
last info about dst is required for cornercases):</p>
<pre><code>import pytz ## pip install pytz
mytz = pytz.timezone('europe/amsterdam') ## set your timezone
dt = mytz.normalize(mytz.localize(dt, is_dst=true)) ## set is_dst accordingly
</code></pre>
<p><strong>consequences of not providing <code>is_dst</code></strong>:</p>
<p>not using <code>is_dst</code> will generate incorrect time (and utc timestamp)
if target datetime was produced while a backward dst was put in place
(for instance changing dst time by removing one hour).</p>
<p>providing incorrect <code>is_dst</code> will of course generate incorrect
time (and utc timestamp) only on dst overlap or holes. and, when
providing
also incorrect time, occuring in "holes" (time that never existed due
to forward shifting dst), <code>is_dst</code> will give an interpretation of
how to consider this bogus time, and this is the only case where
<code>.normalize(..)</code> will actually do something here, as it'll then
translate it as an actual valid time (changing the datetime and the
dst object if required). note that <code>.normalize()</code> is not required
for having a correct utc timestamp at the end, but is probably
recommended if you dislike the idea of having bogus times in your
variables, especially if you re-use this variable elsewhere.</p>
<p>and <strong>avoid using the following</strong>: (cf: <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/q/27531718/4279">datetime timezone conversion using pytz</a>)</p>
<pre><code>dt = dt.replace(tzinfo=timezone('europe/amsterdam')) ## bad !!
</code></pre>
<p>why? because <code>.replace()</code> replaces blindly the <code>tzinfo</code> without
taking into account the target time and will choose a bad dst object.
whereas <code>.localize()</code> uses the target time and your <code>is_dst</code> hint
to select the right dst object.</p></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>old incorrect answer</strong> (thanks @j.f.sebastien for bringing this up):</p>
<p>hopefully, it is quite easy to guess the timezone (your local origin) when you create your naive <code>datetime</code> object as it is related to the system configuration that you would hopefully not change between the naive datetime object creation and the moment when you want to get the utc timestamp. this trick can be used to give an <strong>imperfect</strong> question.</p>
<p>by using <code>time.mktime</code> we can create an <code>utc_mktime</code>:</p>
<pre><code>def utc_mktime(utc_tuple):
"""returns number of seconds elapsed since epoch
note that no timezone are taken into consideration.
utc tuple must be: (year, month, day, hour, minute, second)
"""
if len(utc_tuple) == 6:
utc_tuple += (0, 0, 0)
return time.mktime(utc_tuple) - time.mktime((1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0))
def datetime_to_timestamp(dt):
"""converts a datetime object to utc timestamp"""
return int(utc_mktime(dt.timetuple()))
</code></pre>
<p>you must make sure that your <code>datetime</code> object is created on the same timezone than the one that has created your <code>datetime</code>.</p>
<p><em>this last solution is incorrect because it makes the assumption that the utc offset from now is the same than the utc offset from epoch.</em> which is not the case for a lot of timezones (in specific moment of the year for the daylight saving time (dst) offsets).</p>

measure time elapsed in python | pthe python cprofile and pstats modules offer great support for measuring time elapsed in certain functions without having to add any code around the existing functionsp
pfor example if you have a python script timefunctionspyp
precodeimport time
def hello
print hello
timesleep01
def thankyou
print thank you
timesleep005
for idx in range10
hello
for idx in range100
thankyou
codepre
pto run the profiler and generate stats for the file you can just runp
precodepython m cprofile o timestatsprofile timefunctionspy
codepre
pwhat this is doing is using the cprofile module to profile all functions in timefunctionspy and collecting the stats in the timestatsprofile file note that we did not have to add any code to existing module timefunctionspy and this can be done with any modulep
ponce you have the stats file you can run the pstats module as followsp
precodepython m pstats timestatsprofile
codepre
pthis runs the interactive statistics browser which gives you a lot of nice functionality for your particular use case you can just check the stats for your function in our example checking stats for both functions shows us the followingp
precodewelcome to the profile statistics browser
timestatsprofile stats hello
lttimestampgt timestatsprofile
224 function calls in 6014 seconds
random listing order was used

100 0002 0000 5012 0050 timefunctionspy7thankyou
codepre
pthe dummy example does not do much but give you an idea of what can be done the best part about this approach is that i dont have to edit any of my existing code to get these numbers and obviously help with profilingp

<p>if you're using <code>pandas</code>, as @carsten mentioned, look at the <code>hist</code> function to plot the histogram (similar to <code>plt.hist</code>). however, the equivalent of <code>numpy.histogram</code> is <a href="http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/generated/pandas.cut.html" rel="nofollow"><code>pandas.cut</code></a>, which is extremely handy when you want the histogram counts (or want to group by a continuous range).</p>

ipython notebook pylab inline zooming of a plot | pat present the closest you can come is to redraw it at a larger size using the codefigsizecode function it expects dimensions in inches which caught me out the first time i tried to use itp
pthere are some plants for a rich backend that would allow plots to be manipulated live using html5 but i think it will be a few more months before thats readyp
pif youre using the notebook on your local computer for now the easiest option might be not to use inline mode so the plots pop up as separate windowsp

what does functoolswraps do | pi very often use classes rather than functions for my decorators i was having some trouble with this because an object wont have all the same attributes that are expected of a function for example an object wont have the attribute codenamecode i had a specific issue with this that was pretty hard to trace where django was reporting the error object has no attribute codenamecode unfortunately for classstyle decorators i dont believe that wrap will do the job i have instead created a base decorator class like sop
precodeclass decbaseobject
func none
def initself func
selffunc func
def getattributeself name
if name func
return superdecbase selfgetattributename
return selffuncgetattributename
def setattrself name value
if name func
return superdecbase selfsetattrname value
return selffuncsetattrname value
codepre
pthis class proxies all the attribute calls over to the function that is being decorated so you can now create a simple decorator that checks that 2 arguments are specified like sop
precodeclass processlogindecbase
def callself args
if lenargs 2
raise exceptionyou can only specify two arguments
return selffuncargs

how do i properly use connection pools in redis | predispy provides a connection pool for you from which you can retrieve a connection connection pools create a set of connections which you can use as needed and when done the connection is returned to the connection pool for further reuse trying to create connections on the fly without discarding them ie not using a pool or not using the pool correctly will leave you with way too many connections to redis until you hit the connection limit p
pyou could choose to setup the connection pool in the init method and make the pool global you can look at other options if uncomfortable with global p
precoderedispool none
def init
global pool
printpid d initializing redis pool osgetpid
redispool redisconnectionpoolhost10001 port6379 db0
codepre
pyou can then retrieve the connection from a pool like thisp
precoderedisconn redisredisconnectionpoolredispool
codepre
palso i am assuming you are using hiredis along with redispy as it should improve performance in certain cases have you also checked the number of connections open to the redis server with your existing setup as it most likely is quite high you can use the info commmand to get that informationp
precoderediscli info
codepre
pcheck for the strongclientsstrong section in which you will see the strongconnectedclientsstrong field that will tell you how many connections you have open to the redis server at that instant p
