I find myself often doing the following sort of thing (sorry for
lack of whitespace, I don't want the line to break):
for entry, index in map(lambda e,i:(e,i),aList ,range(len(aLis t)):
# ...
This definitely seems like a roundabout way to loop through
parallel lists together. Is this map routine truly the easiest/
best/most straight-forward way to do a for loop through parallel
lists, if I feel that the Python anti-idom of:
for index in range(len(myLis t)):
entry = aList(index)
anotherEntry = anotherList(ind ex)
# ...
???
This also brings up a similar problem for me when iterating over
dictionaries:
for key in myDict:
value = myDict[key]
# ...
This seems a pretty sloppy way to go about it, imo. There must
be something more in the Python spirit! :)
Thanks.

In Python 2.3, you can write
for index, entry in enumerate(L):
# ...
For 2.2, you can define enumerate yourself:
def enumerate(L):
i = 0
while 1:
try:
yield i, L[i]
except IndexError:
return
i += 1
For older versions, yet another definition would be needed;
I leave that as an exercise.

Here, you could always write
for key, value in myDict.items():

Since 2.2, there is another method available which does not create
a list of tuples:
for key, value in myDict.iteritem s():

Check the zip builtin: help(zip)
Help on built-in function zip:
zip(...)
zip(seq1 [, seq2 [...]]) -> [(seq1[0], seq2[0] ...), (...)]
Return a list of tuples, where each tuple contains the i-th
element
from each of the argument sequences. The returned list is
truncated
in length to the length of the shortest argument sequence.
for index in range(len(myLis t)): entry = aList(index) anotherEntry = anotherList(ind ex) # ...
???

Fire the interpreter and type:
help(dict)
As it's a long stretch of text, I'll just post the relevant part:
| iteritems(...)
| D.iteritems() -> an iterator over the (key, value) items of D

This seems a pretty sloppy way to go about it, imo. There must be something more in the Python spirit! :)

Well apparently not since one can step thru template code with a debugger.
But if I was willing to make the concession on debugging, templates would be
strictly a precompiler thing? I have a feeling the answer I'm going to get
back will be "no, because templates have taken on a life of their own since
their original conception and now also affect compiler implementation"
(read: not good, IMO.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
