Hi,
I am trying to learn C++, and to a certain extent, yeah, it's going alright so far. but I keep getting problems with header files and the like, so I would be really grateful if you guys could...

was working through a lot of tuts, and just wanted to get a clear understanding of looping and list.pop(). I can see it's not very logical now though. lol
Still very very very noobish.

thanx tho

Playing about with python I thought about trying to write a program that gets a simple text file eg. hello %s, and using an adress book, loops through it, changing the %s every time into the next...

Thanks, I can't see why I couldn't work that out!
neway, problem solved.

Say I have a variable, 'New', who's value is Raw_input("Enter name: ") How could I take this variable and pass it into a class?

Using 2.5.4:
came up with

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Python25/urltest.py", line 2, in <module>
pagetext = urllib.urlopen("http://www.python.org").read()

Right, so I looked at some python tutorials about interfacing with internet, but every time a use a code such as:

import urllib
pagetext = urllib.urlopen("http://www.python.org.html").read()...

Thanks guys, I'm all sorted now.
My comments on this page all sound the same right, well this sounds stupid, but i had no idea that the post had gon onto a second page therefore, I just assumed my...

OKay then, how would I place that in my code to solve the prblem?

So how could I put this into my code - saving the contents of the dictionary, and reopeninging them later.

being fairly unfamiliar with such code, how would that be placed within my code to enable me to save and load the data.

cheers, but do you have any ideas on pickleing this to create file io
especially regarding the load

sorry my mistake :)

intro = "Welcome to Adress_Book.py"
name_dic = {}
loop = 1
menu_choice = 0

class Data(object):
def __init__(self, home, mobile, email):
self.home = home

Using the code you gave me, I modified it a bit to enable more easy user interaction, but I want a function to change an attribute of an entry, say the email.
heres the code so far

intro =...

Thanks, that really helped me. But what is the point of 'returning' a value instead of just leaving it or printing it.

This will hopefully be my last noobish question post.
Please could somebody explain or link to explanation:
1.yeild
2.return
thanx in advance

OK then,
thanx

Thanks
that was extremely helpful

Sorry, please do use the other post, how can i delete this post

Thanks, but making the class instance the value of the dictionary does not work it just returns the location of the instance in hexadecimal notation.

I have rejigged the code:

class Data:

Hi attempting to make an address book program but hit a snag-
I have:
A class to give various attributes(phone numbers etc)to an instance

I was experimenting with python and was trying to create an adressbook style thing. I have a class which creates all of the neccasary attributes, but I also wanted a function which added things to...

Thanx for clearing that up.
Noobish question number 2:
python and the internet-
How can I embed python into HTML code and how do you interface with the internet using python

Hi,
I am pretty new to python and I have a really noobish question:
What does %s mean
