Hi,
I'm a pretty sound programmer in C++, but would like to learn python! Does
anyone know of any tutorial s aimed at me?? My biggest confusion so far is
the lack of pointers in Python ......

I suggest that you start with the official Python tutorial at http://docs.python.org/tut/tut.html

It would still be a good idea though to go through the basic python tutorial
at http://docs.python.org/tut/tut.html
For someone already experienced in programming the basic tutorial will
probably only take an hour or so and it is good to read it at least once. The
other thing I highly recommend is reading http://docs.python.org/lib/lib.html just to see what libraries python has
and a basic idea of what they can do. I have seen a LOT of programmers come
from languages like c++ and spend days and sometimes hundreds of lines of
code implementing something that could be done with a single line of code
from the standard library. :) Just trying to save you from that problem. Hi, I'm a pretty sound programmer in C++, but would like to learn python! Does anyone know of any tutorial s aimed at me?? My biggest confusion so far is the lack of pointers in Python ...... Regards

Achtually, python uses pointers for everything. On the contrary there
are no "value types" in python.
MyClass* c = new MyClass(12,13);
is equal to
c = MyClass(12,13)
There is no equivalent to
MyClass c(12,13);
because it's not needed.

Hi everyone,
I've been planning to move to Python from PHP for some time now. I use
PHP extensively for web scripting, with mod_php, Apache, and a DB (I
would characterize my knowledge of PHP as advanced). Here are three
stumbling blocks I've experienced, for which I couldn't seem to find
any helpful information via Google:
1) Mod_python on OSX. I use a Mac as my primary development
environment, so I need mod_python to get anything...

I've posted a previous question about IDEs and got some good feedback,
thanks, but it does seem that everyone has their own favourite IDE -- in
other words, no IDE was repeatedly recommended.
So, is there any data on the popularity of IDEs (most users), or is
there a chart comparing the most popular versions.
I'M NOT AFRAID TO SPEND SOME MONEY TO GET THE RIGHT IDE (but I don't
want to change products once I've chosen).

Just wondered if there was some python idiom for moving a few items
from one list to another. I often need to delete 2 or 3 items from one
list and put them in another. Delete doesn't seem to have a return
value. I don't care which items I get so now I just use a couple of
pops or a for loop for more than two.
Thanks

On August 23rd Python will be moving off of SourceForge and over to

During the transition there will be a time where the SourceForge

brought up yet. We expect this gap to be for a few hours. But to
minimize issues, please try to avoid using either SourceForge or the

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.

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,...
