Hi,
I'm pretty new to Python, to programming overall...so how would I make
something where the user inputs multiple words in a string - like
"connect 123.123.123.123 21 user password" or similar, and then I can
split this string up to pass these arguments to a function like
ftp_connect(ip, port, user, pw) etc...? I have no idea how to "break"
the string up so I can get these out of it..
thanks for answers,
munin

The .split() method of strings should work for you.
If you need more, provide more background... and maybe
let us know that this isn't homework. ;-)

you can use the split() method to split on whitespace: s = "connect 123.123.123.123 21 user password"
s.split()
['connect', '123.123.123.12 3', '21', 'user', 'password']
btw, the cmd module might be useful for your project: http://effbot.org/librarybook/cmd.htm http://docs.python.org/lib/module-cmd.html

Ok well this is pretty basic but it sounds wrong on some level.
Maybe you should post some code, you will get better responses.
You could try something like:
Py>stuff = "connect 123.123.123.123 21 user password"
Py>parts_list = stuff.split()# can handle other seperators
Py>print parts_list
['connect', '123.123.123.12 3', '21', 'user', 'password']
Py>def StrFtp(userinfo ):
.... parts = userinfo.slpit( )
.... funktion, ip, port, usedr, pw = parts
.... funktion = funktion.lower( )
.... if funktion == 'connect'
.... return ftp_connect(ip, port, user, pw)
.... elif funktion == 'other_function _name_here':
.... return 'your other action here'
.... else:
.... return None
Py>ftpconnect = StrFtp("connect 123.123.123.123 21 user password")
Also add asserts and error checking all through the code for malformed
input.

How do you turn a string into a callable function? I'm writing a
program which takes user input and then looks up the associated
function to run from a shelved dictionary. So, I have a dictionary
with entries like this:
myDict = {"desc":"This is Case1", "func1": "Handler1",
"func2" : "Handler2", "args": "ACCEPT"}
Then my program gets the string "Case 1" from the user, and needs to
assign func1 and func2 as handlers for certain events....

hello,
I finally got some code to push a pickled list into a database table.
but now the problem is technically complex although possible to solve.
the problem is that I can nicely pickle and store lists in a blob
field with the help of dumps() for picklling into a string and then
passing the string to the blob.
I am also able to get back the string safely and do a loads() to
unpickle the object.
but this only works when list contains...

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.
