Python 3.x3.0 Python 3 added a new keyword called nonlocal. The nonlocal keyword adds a scope override to the inner scope. You can read all about it in PEP 3104. This is best illustrated with a couple of code examples. One of the most common examples is to create function that can increment: def c...

To iterate all files, including in sub directories, use os.walk: import os for root, folders, files in os.walk(root_dir): for filename in files: print root, filename root_dir can be "." to start from current directory, or any other path to start from. Python 3.x3.5 If ...

Using subprocess.Popen give more fine-grained control over launched processes than subprocess.call. Launching a subprocess process = subprocess.Popen([r'C:\path\to\app.exe', 'arg1', '--flag', 'arg']) The signature for Popen is very similar to the call function; however, Popen will return immedi...

The only time the garbage collector is needed is if you have a reference cycle. The simples example of a reference cycle is one in which A refers to B and B refers to A, while nothing else refers to either A or B. Neither A or B are accessible from anywhere in the program, so they can safely be dest...

To disassemble a Python module, first this has to be turned into a .pyc file (Python compiled). To do this, run python -m compileall <file>.py Then in an interpreter, run import dis import marshal with open("<file>.pyc", "rb") as code_f: code_f.read(8) # M...

The iloc (short for integer location) method allows to select the rows of a dataframe based on their position index. This way one can slice dataframes just like one does with Python's list slicing. df = pd.DataFrame([[11, 22], [33, 44], [55, 66]], index=list("abc")) df # Out: # 0...

This example creates a new file named "NewFile.txt", then writes "Hello World!" to its body. If the file already exists, CreateFile will fail and no data will be written. See the dwCreationDisposition parameter in the CreateFile documentation if you don't want the function to fa...

Enum constants are instantiated when an enum is referenced for the first time. Therefore, that allows to implement Singleton software design pattern with a single-element enum. public enum Attendant { INSTANCE; private Attendant() { // perform some initialization routine ...

Swift func createCollectionView() { let layout: UICollectionViewFlowLayout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout() let collectionView = UICollectionView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: view.frame.width, height: view.frame.height), collectionViewLayout: layout) collectionView.dataSource = sel...

This is a minimalist module that only slurps files into variables, nothing else. use File::Slurper 'read_text'; my $contents = read_text($filename); read_text() takes two optional parameters to specify the file encoding and whether line endings should be translated between the unixish LF or DOS...

Don't use it. Although it has been around for a long time and is still the module most programmers will suggest, it is broken and not likely to be fixed.

A generic class with the type parameter Type class MyGenericClass<Type>{ var value: Type init(value: Type){ self.value = value } func getValue() -> Type{ return self.value } func setValue(value: Type){ self.value = value }...

Euler angles are "degree angles" like 90, 180, 45, 30 degrees. Quaternions differ from Euler angles in that they represent a point on a Unit Sphere (the radius is 1 unit). You can think of this sphere as a 3D version of the Unit circle you learn in trigonometry. Quaternions differ from Eu...

So let's suppose you want to iterate only between some specific lines of a file You can make use of itertools for that import itertools with open('myfile.txt', 'r') as f: for line in itertools.islice(f, 12, 30): # do something here This will read through the lines 13 to 20 as i...
