Something like this ...

from Tkinter import *

def exit():
# do cleanup code here
pass

root = Tk()
# respond to window title bar x click

To approximate for instance the sine of x (x in radians) you can use the Taylor series expansion:
x - x**3/3! + x**5/5! - x**7/7! + ...

However, to get even a remotely accurate number the cutoff...

Ouch!!!!!!!
A couple of hints ...

you still have to start with one function call from main

you need to pass your arguments to and from your functions

variable, function and class names are...

For old stuff like that I recommend a careful study of the source of graphics.py you can get it from:
http://mcsp.wartburg.edu/zelle/python/graphics.py
Also study the elaborate documentation from:...

Python relies on indentations for it's code blocks. Other computer languages use braces, begin, end and so on. So yes, if you want to code in Python, then poorly done indentations can be a real...

To my knowledge the latest release version of PyQT is 4.6, so I doubt that any IDE will work on code completion for your super advanced version (4.9 ?).

According to your code fname is just the filename and b is the full pathname. Still, it will work with os.rename(fname, b).

My question was, what happens if someone enters a directory like this:...

I tried the latest version of Eric (4.3.9). It assiste with PyQT syntax, but does not accept the newer connect style used with PyQT 4.5+. Somewhat irritating!

I modified the program slightly for testing, but this work just fine ...
#!/usr/local/bin/python

import re, os
from os.path import join as pjoin, isdir

while True:
#targetfolder =...

__str__() does operator overloading in a class and "hijacks" str() in any class instance operation that uses str(). So print crit1 will use it, because it uses str() to make it printable. Whereas...

You are using old style Python code! Long ago it used to be like this ...
import string

a = "Why does string.split() not work?"
x = string.split(a)
print("SUCCESS!", x)
... now it's like this...

You can use function exec() ...
# create variables num1, num2, num3 and num4 and set to 77
for n in range(1, 4):
exec( "%s = %d" % ('num' + str(n), 77) )

print(num1) # 77
print(num3) #...

Take a look at the example at:

Will be less complex with a for loop and range(start, end, step) starting at the high value, ending at the low value (exclusive) and stepping -1 ...
n = 3
for x in range(n, 0, -1):
print...

I assume the question is:
Who is foolish enough to do my homework for me?

Also take a look at:

for a mildly more general version.

You have to put your increase calculation in the loop.

No need to be sorry, that kind of thing happens easily on any forum.

When you use a.extend(b) or a.sort() then list a is changed, since both are inplace functions. Also when you pass a list to a function argument, be aware that the list is a mutable object and...

If you make the regular polygon a square with side length = 1.0, you should get an area of 1.0. A simple test to see if the area formula is correct.

You can play with this ...
# test Python command line arguments

import sys

if (len(sys.argv) >= 2):
# skip sys.argv[0]
commandline_args = sys.argv[1:]
print( commandline_args )

If you have a dictionary in your program and want to save and later reload it as a dictionary object, you have to use module pickle. Here is an example ...
# use module pickle to save/dump and load...

A dictionary will serve you better ...
# create a large number of spheres referencing them
# with a (x, y):sphere_object dictionary pair

import visual as vs

spheres = {}
for x in range (0,...

I assume your error is here ...
def print_list(names):
print 'Here are the names in the original order:'
for names in name_list: # <--------
print names
names.sort()

Python3 will tolerate adding (object) to your class for a while at least.
After that just write a little Python utility that removes it.

Here is the story:

In Python2 Tkinter is a Python module file named Tkinter.py a wrapper for the TCL code Tkinter is written in.

With the advent of Python3 Tkinter became a more modern package...

If you want to start with the population after 1/2 year, then every year you have to change your code to this (Python2 or Python3) ...
def populationGrowth():

In this case you have to create a new parent frame (size it for the image) for wx.StaticBitmap(frame, wx.ID_ANY, image)

Would be nice if I could test it out, but I simply don't have all the...

Try something like this ...
#plt.show()
plt.savefig("test.png")

# create an internal image
image = wx.Bitmap("test.png")
# show the image as static...

Why don't you just run the sample code I gave you with the image_file = "mars.jpg" and make sure you have the image file in the working directory or give it the full path.

Avoid the crap you added...

First of all, do not call your function sum because there is already a built-in Python function sum() that will sum up the numbers in a numeric list. This also gives you the hint how to solve your...

Use something like that ...
s = "My Title"
width = 70
s = s.center(width)

print( s )

os.path.exists(filename) will return True or False.

Pygame can load quite a number of image formats. Here is an example ...

I trust that by now you have figured out that names in Python are case sensitive.

Correct. Don't you admire the beauty of Python version changes? Right out of a Monty Python show!

Actually, most computer languages have had their fair share of version changes, they are always...

There are certain characters a file name can not have, might depend on the OS. On Unix you have to have permission to write to some of the directories.

The use of the new style class had a practical implication, it allowed the use of __slots__ as shown in this example ...

def __init__(self):
self.a = 1

Another way to solve this is to use string function isdigit() ...
while True:
num = raw_input("Enter an integer: ")

You need to test the logic in your if statements like
