In case you are curious, I just posted a new tutorial "Python and Multimedia, Part 1, The amazing Webbrowser Module" on DaniWeb at: [url]http://www.daniweb.com/tutorials/tutorial47392.html[/url] I would love some input from our Linux and Unix friends to see how much cross platform the module is. Post any comments in this thread!

The DaniWeb community is pretty worldly, so I though it would be interesting to post the price of beer in your local pub. Be somewhat informative: Here in the state of Nevada I like to go to Barley's Casino and Brewing Company. A pitcher (60 ounces) of Red Rock lager …

Dani, I just put up a tutorial about "Python and Multimedia" [url]http://www.daniweb.com/tutorials/tutorial47392.html[/url] I need to add just a small paragraph at the end, explaining how to play movies. Multimedia is a little incomplete without that. I don't seem to have editing privileges.

Does anybody know the limit of nested for loops in C or C++? If there is a limit, what is the reason?

I parked a little code snippet called "A Taste of Boo" at: [url]http://www.daniweb.com/code/snippet429.html[/url] It's under Python so the code field would show the indentations properly.

[B]Python and the JPEG Image File, Part 1, The Header[/B] [B]Intro[/B] The JPEG image file format (.jpg) is very popular on the internet because you can pack a lot of picture information into a relatively small file. There are competing file formats like GIF and PNG. GIF is rather limited …

[B]Intro[/B] When you declare an integer variable in C, the variable is assigned a fixed memory location with enough space to hold the type integer. When you then initialize the variable with a value, the value is put into that space. Take a look at the C code sample below: …

Just want to get ideas on which modern language could replace good old Basic, so the learning curve isn't too galling. I am partial to Python. The reasons: 1. It is an interpreted language, but can be compiled. 2. It has a very efficient memory manager built-in. 3. Lots of …

I am not shamelessly promoting this book, I just happen to like it and use it a lot! "Standard C++ Bible" by Stevens and Walnum, published by Hungry Minds. This 800 page plus book is loaded with samples and comes with a CD-ROM containing all the samples and a nifty …

Why are the standard header files in C++ so non-standard? Particularly iostream seems to be the most dialectal. Enough to make the whole language a mess to work with!

I found this neat little GUI calculator program on the net. It uses a function called _gcvt(double val,int limit,string cBuf), which seems to be used to convert a double val to a string cBuf, with some formatting and limiting. I replaced it with sprintf(), but the output looks rather crude …
