Here's a bit of code to get you started. You'll have to play with it to do things like validating input, etc.

init_amt = float(raw_input('Enter the initial amount, in $ '))
int_rate =...

Check the amount of interest earned each month (amt * rate/12). If this is greater than what you're taking out of the account, then you'll never deplete the account, so there's no point in trying to...

If your array is a list, just create a string for each array using "tab.join(array)", then write the string to a sequential file. Use Excel (or whatever the open-office equivalent is) and import it...

I have to agree with EneUran - the size of the list is, or at least should be, irrelevant.

Athirar, can you post a code sample and your list?

Sounds like homework to me. Why not post what you've got and let us know where you're stuck, instead of asking us to do your homework for you.

Of course, you'll have to do it the other way too - to look through file2 to be sure everything there is also in file1.

First, please use code tags around your code - indentation is important in Python, and invisibl without the code tags.

Don't use input - use raw_input instead, and then use 'float' to convert your...

Well, that sounds easy enough. What have you got so far? Remember what it said at the top of the Python forum page? We'll help you out, not do your homework for you.

The command you want is 'break'. I'll leave it to you to look up the syntax. There are a couple of ways you can test for what you need. First, lists have a 'sort' method. Use that to tell what the...

Don't know whether it's true or not. The story I heard is that it was developed because typists were so proficient using earlier formats, that they were jamming the machines - they could type faster...

There was a 4th - Clara Hughes of Canada: Individual Road Race Cycling bronze and Individual Time Trial Cycling bronze (1996) and 5,000 m Speed Skating bronze (2002).

Christa Luding-Rothenburger...

Thanks, I knew it was something simple that I had seen before.

I'm going to feel really stupid when I see the answer to my question, because I'm sure I've seen it before and I've just forgotten. Anyway, I was just fiddling with this example, and I can't remember...

How do you think it should be approached? What do you think needs to be done? Let's hear your ideas first - even in English rather than in Python, if that's easier. We can take it from there.

Tried - gave fake name and addy info, skipped through about 20 of these "special offers" and the thing froze. I know I'm not stupid, at least not stupid enough to try twice.

Because it gives them more options - a less powerful weapon would allow you to cause limited damage in a geographically limited area. A massive weapon would cause more widespread damage, which may...

And what happens if a user happens to post copyrighted material (to which they own the copyright?)

Wait a second - people ask for homework help on a forum? What's next - paying to have the work done?

Seriously, though, that's a very good possibility. Back in my day, there was no internet to...

I've been told by a number of people I look like Robin Williams. Don't know whether they meant as Mork or as the Genie from Alladin, though!

In terms of going there to gamble, remember - they don't call it "Lost Wages" for nothing!

Gonzo here.

I can't see your data, so I can only guess at what it might contain. But I would think that to find the "most productive" director, you'd want to find the average for each director, and sort these...

Depends what you're after. You can look at www.python-forum.org, if you can get there when it's up.

Well, the last problem was fixed within a day after I sent an email (not a PM) to one of the admins. I'll have to do the same tonight when I get home. I think it would look better if I complain about...

Create a new list called 'b'. Then pass through list 'a', and check each element against list 'b'. Use the 'append' method to add to list 'b' if you need to.

And for what it's worth, I probably...

If you use "import socket", you will import everything from the "socket" module whether you need it or not, but with "from socket import *", you can actually specify what you want to import....

I hope people don't mind seeing references to other forums here.

I'm a regular at www.python-forum.org (http://www.python-forum.org) but lately I've been having problems with the site. Last week,...

Before "for line in data", set a line counter to 0. Inside the loop, increment the counter. Only when it is > 1, print the line.

The easiest way would probably be to create a new list ('b', perhaps? You've defined 'b' in your function but never use it). Then copy each item from 'a' to 'b' unless it is 0 or already in 'b'.

Use the string module - it has a built-in for lower-case letters. This is preferable to specifying the ASCII characters - what happens if you run on an EBCDIC system? You're better off seeing if...

That's the one.

And thanks, Sneekula - I actually found this board while looking for some Python code.

Actually the way I heard it was more like this - Why do married men die younger? They want to!

(And before anyone complains, yes, I am married, and no, I don't feel that way personally).
