Hello:
Please forgive me if my question is too silly or just not
well-formed.
Wesley Chun in his book (Core Python Programming) says that
**everything** in Python is an object. So I became curious
about the precise definition of an object in Python. My
curiosity was also driven by Wesley's statement that while
every class instance is an object, not every object is a

What's better about Ruby than Python? I'm sure there's something. What is
it?
This is not a troll. I'm language shopping and I want people's answers. I
don't know beans about Ruby or have any preconceived ideas about it. I have
noticed, however, that every programmer I talk to who's aware of Python is
also talking about Ruby. So it seems that Ruby has the potential to compete
with and displace Python. I'm curious on what basis it...

I'm realizing I didn't frame my question well.
What's ***TOTALLY COMPELLING*** about Ruby over Python? What makes you jump
up in your chair and scream "Wow! Ruby has *that*? That is SO FRICKIN'
COOL!!! ***MAN*** that would save me a buttload of work and make my life
sooooo much easier!"
As opposed to minor differences of this feature here, that feature there.
Variations on style are of no interest to me. I'm coming at this from a...

I am starting a new thread so we can avoid some of the non-productive
argument following my earlier post "What is good about Prothon". At
Mr. Hahn's request, I will avoid using the name "Prothon" in the
subject of any post to this newsgroup. Please ignore the old thread.
I've also updated my webpage http://ece.arizona.edu/~edatools/Python
Anyone with some good ideas for "Python 3" is welcome to contribute.
I hope GvR won't sue me for...

A cooperation between Sun Microsystems and IBM&Co. in conjunction with
liberal & high evolutive communities would result in an nearly
unbeatable programming platform.
My evaluation has shown: this is a non achievable goal, as stubborness
and egoism rules - instead of reason and cooperation.
Thus I leave all those ridiculous folks behind, which will continue to
do an excellent job in keeping the very promising JAVA platform far

Hello,
What is the Pythonic way of implementing getters and setters. I've
heard
people say the use of accessors is not Pythonic. But why? And what is
the alternative? I refrain from using them because they smell
"Javaish."
But now my code base is expanding and I'm beginning to appreciate the
wisdom behind them. I welcome example code and illustrations.

A quick question about how python parses a file into compiled
bytecode. Does it parse the whole file into AST first and then compile
the AST, or does it build and compile the AST on the fly as it reads
expressions? (If the former case, why can't functions be called before
their definitions?)
Thanks,
Jordan

Hi everyone,
I'm a big Python fan who used to be involved semi regularly in
comp.lang.python (lots of lurking, occasional posting) but kind of
trailed off a bit. I just wrote a frustration inspired rant on my
blog, and I thought it was relevant enough as a wider issue to the
Python community to post here for your discussion and consideration.
This is not flamebait. I love Python, and I'm not out to antagonise
the community. I also...

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.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

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,...
