As far as asking the user for input use either raw_input or input depending on your version of Python. Then the conversion is simple math. Just google "1 kilometer to miles" and it will give you the conversion rate.

[QUOTE=smoore;943889]What if I would like to change the file's privileges after i have already initialized the variable?[/QUOTE] You basically have two options: 1) Close the file handle and reopen (you can use the file handles member [icode]name[/icode] if you don't want to hard code it): [code=python] >>> fh = open('some.file', …

That means you haven't installed/setup the module correctly. Why don't you try going to the source website and see if there are instructions for setup.

You'll need to actually write to your file handle [icode]txtfile[/icode] by using [icode]txtfile.write( text )[/icode].

[QUOTE=Aiban;941655]goto musicback2[/QUOTE] I was just talking with a co-worker yesterday about BASIC.

If you were to [icode]split[/icode] the users input into a list you can use list indexing to call out each word individually. Here's an example: [code=python] >>> act_in = "punch Alice in the face" >>> act_in_parts = act_in.split() >>> action = act_in_parts[0] >>> target = act_in_parts[1] >>> action 'punch' >>> …

Is there any possibility that the page your browser is displaying is a cached version and hasn't updated to notify you of the user's deletion? Try clearing ff's cache and then fetching the page again.

I'm thinking you should just be "adding" the lists together instead of appending a list onto a list... if you know what I mean. Like this: [code=python] import re def test(): a = "<this is> <a> test" b = re.split("(<|>)", a) c = [] for item in b: c += …

For one thing, don't name your list "list", as that's a reserved word in Python (try [icode]list('12345')[/icode]), same thing with file... But that modification won't help you. I'm assuming you've got a new version of Python installed, as the method you're using will only work in earlier versions of python. …

[QUOTE=Dixtosa;940080]udp or tcp?[/QUOTE] UDP is an "unreliable" transfer protocol, ie if a packet is dropped or lost, it doesn't care.

You would use string formatting to insert the value of the variable in the string you're using to execute grep like so: [code] variable = 123 s = subprocess.Popen("grep -w %s Data.txt" % variable) [/code] Here's the documentation on [URL="http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#string-formatting-operations"]string formatting[/URL].
