Larry Craig, the US Senator from Idaho, flew all the way to Minnesota to fullfil his perverse sexual fantasies in a public men's room there. A smelly public men's room, the guy has no class! I did not realize that that state has a reputation for this kind of thing. …

Interesting story! Interesting that it worked, maybe there is an economical application of religious ceremonies in aircraft maintenance. To be really safe, each passenger should sacrifice a goat before boarding the plane.

"My sister bought a house 25 years ago in southern CA for $120,000 and sold it a year ago for $850,000." That just about takes care of inflation, taxes and fees. Off topic: "Let's keep politics out of the Olympics!"

Come on folks, this sort of thing is going on all the time. It's perfectly safe!

Next David will attacking Motherhood!

I got my Porsche that way!

I can barely wait until Sinkula brings up the third amendment! In the meantime roll up your sleeves, bare your arms, and go to work!

Sounds very much like the guy in the apartment below ours.

That database and tattooing a large number on everyones forehead should just about eliminate much of the lower class crimes in your country.

In a similar vain, there have been attacks of seniors by teenagers who wanted to ride their fancy motorized wheelchairs. If you are an old phard riding a segway, watch out!

... the person above me is the greatest person ever!

I thought this was the Geek's Lounge (geeks have a brain), but it sound like it is more and more the "John Birch Society" Lounge!

Just imagine, this could be an Olympic sport!

We also have a Department of Energy and are dependend on oil more than ever! Do we need to get rid of them too?

Just another ho-hum politician who hopes that abortion will be the main issue in the elections.

I watched it and it was great! An almost religious experience!

Dan, it sounds to me like you are suggesting new places for the terrorist to commit their evil deads! Thanks for scaring the rest of us! Money talks! Stick a bundle of hundred Dollar bills in an envelope, freezer ready, wrapped in saran wrap, and hand it to a politician …

When I was in Canada, they put mayonaise on everything, it even replaced ketchup.

Take a look at: [URL]http://www.daniweb.com/code/snippet414.html[/URL] It allows you to designate a sine wave to the sound frequency to play.

CIA and FBI computers have edited entries in the online encyclopedia Wikipedia on topics including the Iraq war and the Guantanamo prison, according to a new tracing program. [URL]http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070816/wr_nm/security_wikipedia_dc_3;_ylt=AisUcvnBVjtrxa9lateIsEIE1vAI[/URL] Here I though that Fox News was handling that sort of thing for them!

I find jwenting's comment disgustingly uninformed, he (or she) did obviously not listen to the interview, but just mouthed off a typical O'Reiley line!

Is the sudden attention of our moronic press to the death of a small number of coal miners a product of global warming?

Right now I have a mixed list of different types of elements: [code=python]mixed_list = [1, 0.5, 0, 3, 'a', 'z'] print max(mixed_list) # shows z, but would like it to be 3 [/code]How can I find the maximum numeric element of the list?

Can I display animated images like an animated GIF file using Python code?

I guess Bush's new poodle is now Brown instead of Blair. Well, at least he is sticking with the B word!

I would like to reverse a sentence. I have this: [code=python]sentence = "a doctor kills your ills with pills and you with bills" print sentence[::-1] # sllib htiw uoy dna sllip htiw slli ruoy sllik rotcod a [/code]However, I would like the sentence reversed like this: bills with you and …

I had the same problem until I figured out that the Text widget width is in characters and the height in text lines. Makes it easier for text, but harder for overall sizing.

To save and load a whole object like a list, you have to use the module pickle: [code=python]import pickle myList = [1,2,3,4] # save/dump the list as an object file = open("myList.dat", "w") pickle.dump(myList, file) file.close() # read/load the list as an object file = open("myList.dat", "r") myList2 = pickle.load(file) …

Can you run any wxPython code, even just a small program?

I would have used something like [INLINECODE] int pos = st.IndexOf(data); [/INLINECODE]

[quote=addicted;340960]:rolleyes: I need some one to define prime numbers for me A full definition, I am trying to write a program to determine wether a number is prime, print all prime numbers in a specific range ... e.t.c so i need a full definition of prime numbers, i know prime …

You cannot use C to solve this problem. The highest integer value it can use is: unsigned long (32 bits) goes from 0 to 4,294,967,295 max. There are other languages that can handle very large integers easily.

wxPython calls this method to initialize an application

Now we have all seen that our moderators are less than perfect: [code]// typical example for seeded random integers in a given range #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <time.h> // time() int main(void) { int i, min, max, rn; srand(time(NULL)); // random seed on most compilers min = 1; max …

Python uses 'while True' for the endless loop. [code=python]# this will loop until the user enters # either 'yes' or 'go away' while True: quest = raw_input("Are you ready?") if quest == 'yes': break elif quest == 'go away': raise SystemExit # more code here to be executed after break …

Does anyone know of anyplace/anybody that teaches C# at the highschool or college level to get students used to a programming language?

Doesn't look like tcl knows how to handle the higher ascii characters properly, even with adding encoding strings to the code.

[quote=iamthwee;332847]Not 100% fool proof. Like I said you have to code your own me thinks.[/quote]Nothing is 100% fool proof, it depends on the fool! I would say go with pygmalion's solution, unless "know-it-all" iamthwee produces code.

Also take a look at this site, it's IDE is much smaller and faster than the hughely swollen MS Express C# deal. SharDevelop is a free IDE for C#, VB.NET and Boo projects on Microsoft's .NET platform. It is open-source, and you can download both sourcecode and executables from this …

What is a cron job?

I found this code, but can't find the needed module: [CODE] # display the info of a list, dictionary and tuple # needs apihelper.py from apihelper import info # create a list (or other container) li = [] # now display the available inormation print info(li) print "-------------------------------------------" # create …

I am a little confused with the 'string.split(s)' I thought it was more like s.split(): [code]s = "Just a test string" words = s.split() print words [/code]Are there different versions of Python floating about?

I have for instance this function I wrote and want to assure that the argument is a number when I call the function. [code]def hypotenuse(n): "return the length of the hypotenuse of an isosceles triangle" return (n*n + n*n)**0.5 sides = 3.7 print hypotenuse(sides) [/code]Any ideas how to do this?

What module do you use to get a radiobutton?
