You should get an eye on http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/moinmo...ionProgramming
It may give you some ideas...

Yes, this is exactly the same as if you'd written:
ID_COL = 0
ANIMAL_COL = 1
HOUSING_COL = 2
Earlier in the thread you asked:
In the os.stat there is aparrently a list of things you can refer to eg:
ST_SIZE, ST_ATIME, etc.
How are these defined? They appear to be related to 0,1,2,3,.... some
sort of enumeration.
It's easy to answer a question like that by searching the Python
installation directory (at least if the names are defined in Python source
code, not C code). You can either do a search, or since these are defined in
the stat module (not os.stat), you can look in stat.py, where you'll find:
# Indices for stat struct members in tuple returned by os.stat()
ST_MODE = 0
ST_INO = 1
ST_DEV = 2
ST_NLINK = 3
ST_UID = 4
ST_GID = 5
ST_SIZE = 6
ST_ATIME = 7
ST_MTIME = 8
ST_CTIME = 9

Hi everyone.
I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me out here. I'm currently
looking to find the quickest way to find a best fit match in a large array.
My problem is that I have an array of, say, 600*400, which contains a value
at each point, and I need to find the value in that array which is closest
to the input value. It's basically some euclidean distances that I've
calculated, and I need to be able to find the best matches...

Hi Everyone,
I'm wondering about the best way to enumerate something.
I have a list of columnames for a db and I decided to put them in a giant
tuple list for two reasons:
1) its unchangeable
2) I was hoping that creating an enumeration of those names would be easy

I see that there is a thread of a similar topic that was posted
recently ( enumerate with a start index ) but thought I would start a
new thread since what I am suggesting is a little different.
I posted a very similar item to python-dev, but they said to post it
here. Tutor also said that if anything is to be considered as PEP
worthy, it should be run through here first. So...here goes.
Whenever I use enumerate, I am doing so...

I write a lot of code that looks like this:
for myElement, elementIndex in zip( elementList,
range(len(elementList))):
print "myElement ", myElement, " at index: ",elementIndex
My question is, is there a better, cleaner, or easier way to get at the
element in a list AND the index of a loop than this?

If I want to make a list of four items, e.g. L = ,
and then figure out if a certain element precedes another element, what

Looking at the built-in list functions, I thought I could do something like:
if L.index('A') < L.index('D'):

But I didn't know if maybe there was a preferred method for this type of

I think that it would be handy for enumerate to behave as such:
def enumerate(itrbl, start=0, step=1):
i = start
for it in itrbl:
yield (i, it)
i += step
This allows much more flexibility than in the current enumerate,
tightens up code in many cases, and seems that it would break no
