Wouldn't it be cool if you could do this?
('hello','test' ) in 'blah blah hello blah test':
and it would say if all elements of the list are in the string?
it would be more efficient and more readable than:
'hello' in 'blah blah hello blah test' and 'test' in 'blah blah hello blah

Untested:
def string_contains _any_of( targets, the_string ):
for target in targets:
if target in the_string:
return True
return False
string_contains _any_of( ('hello', 'test'), 'blah blah blah' )

well, if you're asking me, I'd say that what's really cool is that you
can do not only
findall(('hello ', 'test'), 'blah blah hello blah test')
but also
find_any(('hell o', 'test'), 'blah blah hello blah test')
find_in_order(( 'hello', 'test'), 'blah blah hello blah test')
find_in_any_cas e(('hello', 'test'), 'blah blah hello blah test')
starts_and_ends _with(('hello', 'test'), 'blah blah hello blah test')
find_only_on_fr idays(('hello', 'test'), 'blah blah hello blah test')
etc.
without having to change the language, or any of its implementations .
</F>
This can be written as:
a=('hello','tes t')
b='blah blah hello blah test'
reduce(lambda x,y: x and b.count(y), a)
or as a fuction:
def contains_all(a, b):
return reduce(lambda x,y: x and b.count(y), a)
Then in main program
if contains_all(a, b):

Hi,
I am new to Python, so this may be a very simple question for most of
you. What does the % operator stand for in Python? I came across a
script that uses the % operator as follows -
def sync(delf,name):
os.popen3( 'P4 -s sync -f %s' % name)
I would suspect that this just replaces the %s with the value of name.

Hi,
I recently wrote two benchmark programs that compared if two strings
were equal: one was a C program that used C char arrays with strcmp(),
and the other was a C++ program that used std::strings with
operator==().
In both programs, the first string consisted of one million
characters (all the letter 'a'). The second string was always one
character longer than the first string (with the letter 'a' for all the

To me, this seems rather redundant. The compiler requires that if you
overload the == operator, you must also overload the != operator. All I do
for the != operator is something like this:
public static bool operator !=(MyType x, MyType y)
{
return !(x == y);
}
That way the == operator handles everything, and extra comparing logic isn't

I recently (re)discovered data binding in Windows Forms thanks to its
advances in Visual Studio 2005. As I looked a little deeper, however, I
realize that it still suffers from an irksome tendency to stick a whole
bunch of literal strings in my code. Quite frankly, I consider them a
plague imposed on developers by the RAD designers that come with Visual
Studio. The problem with using literal strings to refer to controls, data

Why can I overload operator== and operator!= separately having different
implementations and additionally I can override equals() also having a
different implementation.
Why not forbid overloading of == and != but instead translate each call
of objA==objB automatically in System.Object.Equals(objA, objB).
This would remove inconsistencies like

Hi,
I have a question about overloading operator<< . Actually I am trying to understand how it works when chaining multiple calls to this operator. I have a very simple class (MyOut) with an overloaded operator<<, which takes a string as input parameter and returns a reference to an ostream object (std::cout in this case).
In the main file I instantiate an object of MyOut and then write a message to console in two different ways:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
